- unlock latent value from a multitude of small cultural and creative stakeholders through technology transfer, improved cross-sectoral collaboration and their effective integration in production value networks.
- strengthen artistic driven innovation as an indispensable part of the European Innovation Ecosystem.
- reinforce the appreciation and anchoring of European values, and identities.
- harness the unique position of the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries to facilitate Europe’s Green, Digital and Social transitions.
