Creativeworks London

伦敦是一个复杂的知识交流以及文化和创意互动的环境。它面临着独特的挑战，因为它试图在创意经济中保持全球竞争力，特别是在数字创新方面。伦敦创意中心建立在伦敦艺术和文化交流中心(LCACE)的基础上，这是一个为期七年的合作伙伴关系，由总部设在伦敦的九所高等教育机构组成：伯克贝克学院、城市大学、考陶尔德学院、金史密斯学院、市政厅、伦敦国王学院、伦敦玛丽皇后大学、皇家霍洛威和艺术大学。我们将与伦敦大学创意合作中心、中央演讲和戏剧学院、罗汉普顿、SOAS、金斯敦和三一拉班音乐与舞蹈学院等较小的专业机构以及英国广播公司、大英博物馆、维多利亚与阿尔伯特博物馆和大英图书馆等主要文化机构一起参加。我们将与伦敦市长办公室和科技城投资公司(英国贸易和投资公司的一部分)以及创意和文化技能理事会等全英国组织联系。我们还将与大大小小的行业合作伙伴密切合作，包括IBM、PlayGen/Digital Shoreditch、Mediaclarity和Bellemdia。这使得该中心能够对伦敦创意经济的多种且往往支离破碎的方法进行阶段性改变，并为该部门提供关键的艺术和人文干预。至关重要的是，该中心还将确保企业、政策制定者和政府广泛认识到这些干预措施的重要性。为此，它将对伦敦过去和目前实施创意经济战略的尝试进行研究；调查伦敦数字经济的特殊要求，以及伦敦观众在表演和文物的现场体验和数字体验之间的关系。该中心的知识交流计划侧重于“创意代金券”，艺术和人文学科的研究人员将提供一系列服务(例如媒体希望获取的历史信息、政策概述、知识产权建议、数字解决方案、商业模式或实践的替代方法)，供中小企业使用。该计划还将使我们能够跟踪该行业不断变化的需求，反馈给我们对伦敦独特的创意经济的研究。此外，还将为希望体验行业的研究生研究人员和将在高等学校环境中受益一段时间的企业家提供一个“人员交流计划”。卓越的研究和创新的KE相结合，将确保Creativeworks London提供战略概览和网络支持。如果伦敦--进而是英国--要在数字媒体、音乐、时尚和视觉艺术等相互关联的领域培养创业能力，并为进入市场的新途径提供便利，这将是至关重要的。

London is a complex environment for Knowledge Exchange and cultural and creative interactions. It faces distinctive challenges as it attempts to sustain global competiveness in the Creative Economy, particularly in terms of digital innovation. Creativeworks London builds on the London Centre for Arts and Cultural Exchange (LCACE), a seven year partnership of nine London-based Higher Education Institutions: Birkbeck College, City University, the Courtauld Institute, Goldsmiths College, Guildhall, King's College London, Queen Mary University of London, Royal Holloway and University of the Arts. We will be joined by smaller specialist organisations such as the University of London's Centre for Creative Collaboration, Central School of Speech and Drama, Roehampton, SOAS, Kingston and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance and by major cultural organisations such as the BBC, the British Museum,the V&A and the British Library. We will be liaising with the London Mayor's office and the Tech City Investment Company (part of UK Trade and Investment), and UK-wide groups such as the Creative and Cultural Skills Council. We will also be working closely with industry partners, both large and small, including IBM, Playgen/ Digital Shoreditch, Mediaclarity and Bellemedia. This enables the Hub to provide a step-change in the multiple and often fragmented approaches to London's Creative Economy and to provide crucial Arts and Humanities interventions into the sector. Crucially, the Hub will also ensure that the importance of these interventions are widely recognised by business, policy-makers and government. To do so, it will undertake research into London's previous and current attempts to implement creative economy strategies; investigate the special requirements of London's digital economy and the relationship that London's audiences have between the live and the digital experience of performances and artefacts. The Hub's Knowledge Exchange programme focuses on 'Creative Vouchers' where Arts & Humanities researchers will offer a range of services (such as historical information that the Media would like to access, policy overviews, IP advice, digital solutions, alternative approaches to business models or practices) which can be accessed by SMEs. The scheme will also allow us to track the sector's changing needs, feeding back into our research into London's distinctive creative economy. There will also be a 'People Exchange Scheme' for both postgraduate researchers who want to experience industry and entrepreneurs who would benefit from a period of time within an HEI environment. The combination of excellent research and innovative KE will ensure that Creativeworks London provides a strategic overview and network support. This will be essential if London, and hence the UK, is to cultivate entrepreneurial capacity and facilitate new routes to markets in inter-related fields such as digital media, music, fashion and the visual arts.
