The ICCC has the ambition to advance the state of art and promote new ideas and proposals on the major challenges faced by culture and creativity today in Europe and beyond: management, entrepreneurship, new business models, evaluation, and their internationalization, communication, education and cultivation of creativity. The conference seeks to promote networking among academics, researchers, professionals and representatives and welcomes all scholars and professionals as well as students who are interested in creative/cultural industries, creative city theories and practices, arts and culture management and marketing participate.

The key‐speaker of this year is Dr. TOM FLEMING (United Kingdom) – leading international expert on the creative economy, cultural and arts policy and creative cities and regions. His work focuses on advising governments, municipalities and institutions across the world to develop effective research, policy, strategy and action across the creative economy.
