Kreativwirtschaft
Creative Industries Austria
The creative industries are established in the growth area at the intersection of business and culture, at the
point where artistic/cultural ambitions meet economic realisation. They comprise all areas along the value creation
chain – from the development of ideas to their implementation and distribution of the finished product.

Kreativwirtschaftsbericht" (Austrian creative industries report) can be found at
