UC partnered with the ACT Government to outline the current, state, scope and potential of the creative industries in the ACT to identify the ACT’s competitive advantage and future opportunities for, and constraints to, growing jobs in this sector.

The mixed methods project included 190 surveys, 45 interviews and 10 focus groups with the ACT creative industries.

A prototype map of the ACT creative industries was developed for future public use by the industries to collect data, improve visibility and inform policy.
