Boosting the Creative Industry in the North East

A recent report created by eight representatives of the North East Creative Industry and Durham researchers highlights the sector's many challenges and opportunities and indicates that more needs to be done to leverage the full potential of a thriving industry.

Four representatives and two Durham researchers are currently working to take the challenges of the report forward and create solutions that aim to support the North East Creative Industry.
