Abstract

Creative networks are a relatively recent, evolving phenomenon. To date there has been little interrogation of creative networks from either a policy or academic perspective. This research is designed to enable a better understanding of these networks and their role in supporting the creative industries. Our research suggests that the value contribution made by creative networks is extensive, providing a key central node for a range of stakeholders with an impact felt far beyond the local creative industries. Despite their contribution, creative networks face a number of key<br>challenges. These include a lack of resources (time and money) with most identifying<br>uncertainty of funding and workload as their main obstacles. Other challenges include a lack of external understanding of the role, value and status of creative networks in the wider ecosystem.
