The creative industries have proved to be a leading component of economic growth and social progress in most advanced economies. Greece, however, is yet to take full advantage of the creative industries’ significant opportunities to find alternative solutions to its economic woes.
Elpis’ goal in organizing this exciting international event is to encourage a dialogue, an open debate with creative practitioners, policy makers, researchers, entrepreneurs, journalists and anybody who understands the value and importance of creative thinking for our future.
We acknowledge the fact that we need decisive policy action, both at local and national levels, to establish the appropriate business environment required to support and empower Creativity as a key factor for development.
