European Creative Cluster Lab

The European Creative Cluster Lab. Managing Networked Creativity to Boost European Competitiveness is the think tank and beta site for new approaches and processes for creative cluster management in creative and traditional industries in Europe. 

Partners in this action are: Stuttgart-Warsaw-Barcelona-Lille-Bari.

The main goals of this cluster partnership are to test and experiment new creative cluster management styles, instruments and infrastructure in a lab environment by:

  • Incubation, innovation and creativity:
    “We will analyse and describe innovation processes in creative industries and their relevance for clusters.”
  • New collaboration approaches between creative clusters:
    “We will test concepts and process schemes for new collaboration approaches between creative clusters.”
  • Cross-sectoral collaboration between creative and traditional industries:
    “We will pilot concepts and process schemes for new collaboration approaches between creative clusters and traditional industries.”
  • Managing creativity and creative Teams:
    “We will design and validate training concepts and coaching process schemes for creative cluster managers that are tailored to innovation processes in creative industries.”

Internationalization is an aspect within all those actions. To develop exchange of know how and gain new possibilities of cooperation the Global Study Visit to Brazil is prepared. ECCL supports exchange of knowledge and building linkages between creative entrepreneurs from Europe and Brazil.
