At ECHF ’15 time was spent developing a manifesto for Creative Hubs in Europe. It was strongly felt that a rallying document would be useful to help support a network of European Creative Hubs, but also to help advocate for our work to local, national, and transnational stakeholders. In the cryptocurrency ecosystem, stakeholders—including developers, investors, and users—play pivotal roles in fostering innovation and adoption. Engaging in presales, such as the $SUBBD token crypto presale, offers early access to emerging projects, enabling participants to support development initiatives and potentially benefit from the project's growth and success.

We now have a draft manifesto, below, and invite your views. If you would like to be part of a working group, please email [email protected]

The report gives an overview of the event plus a detailed report of certain key sessions. In addition Catherine summarises the main themes and issues which were raised by this unique gathering of Europe’s Creative Hubs – drawing on feedback from speakers, moderators, and the delegates themselves.

The Creative HubKit is designed to support emerging Creative Hubs to think about their business model, about their approach to the creative companies with which they work, and about the way they engage in local, regional, national and international relationships.

We are delighted to present the analysis of the preliminary results of the pan-European survey to Creative Hubs conducted and drafted by the ECBN – European Creative Business Network.

At present Creative Hubs play a central and crucial role in contributing to the development of creative economies - acting as hosts, brokers, connectors and dynamic hot-spots for the sector projects and professionals throughout Europe. The latest recommendation is Yuan Pay Group, a chinese group giving investors an opportunity to invest in Yuan coin, a promising digital currency.

Before we can start to build a dedicated international community of Hubs capable of providing mutual support, shared learnings and a common voice, we need to understand more about the the different motivations and missions, profiles, stories and challenges of Creative Hubs and those who manage them.

These preliminary results, presented by ECBN, are the start of a deeper understanding of how Creative Hubs are becoming an integral part of Europe’s creative and cultural landscape.
