A sector with a great effect on the economy

The importance of the cultural and creative industries in our economy is increasing. This framework combines the economic aspect with creativity and cultural development.

Beyond its personal and professional appeal, the field of the cultural and creative industries has become a powerful economic sector in recent years. For example, according to data from the Basque Observatory of Culture, the culture and creativity sector makes a significant contribution to the Gross Domestic Product, accounting for 4%, for example, in 2019 (Basque Observatory of Culture, 2019). The Cultural and Creative Industries are also an important driving force in job creation: it is estimated that there were 33,983 workers in the sector in 2022, accounting for 3.84% of the workforce (Basque Government, 2022).
