Creative Economy
Lisbon's cosmopolitan and multicultural environment, its receptiveness to technological innovation and in particular to information and communication technologies (ICTs), its competitive and highly qualified workforce, are all characteristics that are conducive to the development of a creative economy in the city.
As such, one of the sectors with the greatest potential for growth in Lisbon is the Creative Economy, understood here as a key economic sector for the city, intersecting different realities: economic, socio-cultural and technological. The creative economy is driven by numerous actors in constant dialogue and transformation, and interactive processes are being developed between private and public initiative.
