Dear cultural and creative industries professionals and supporters,
Creative Czechia brings you fresh updates, events, and opportunities from across the cultural and creative industries—as defined in the national Strategy for the Development and Support of CCI. We collect insights from regions, professional associations, expert groups, and interministerial cooperation. We also focus on cross-cutting topics like education, employment, innovation, industrial policy, export, regional development, tourism, and more.
We cover cultural policy issues, too. Collecting and analyzing data helps us understand the needs of the sector and shape effective support tools. It also enables international comparison and helps identify differences between regions. Mapping the CCI sector gives us a clearer picture of culture’s impact on the economy and social cohesion. That’s why we take part in mapping projects in the Czech Republic and share the results and related resources. We're also involved in shaping the State Cultural Policy 2026+.
As part of the Creative Czechia platform, the Industry section is your go-to space. There, you'll find the National Gallery of Creative Professionals—a database of creatives offering services across CCI fields and ready to team up with small and medium-sized enterprises. Originally developed for the national Creative Vouchers program, the gallery is also used by other grant providers and reflects the vibrant, ever-changing nature of the CCI world. The Industry section also features a directory of organizations, platforms, and initiatives helping to grow and support culture and creativity in the Czech Republic and beyond.
Creative Czechia is an open space for showcasing creativity. Visually, we draw from the archives of cultural institutions funded by the Ministry of Culture and regional governments. We also share inspiring case studies—both on our website and through our social media.
Stay connected—we're excited to share what’s next!
