Culture is to support global development, here is the very lesson of EY’s study. The cultural and creative industries generated worldwide US$ 2,250 revenues in 2013. As a comparison, these revenues are superior to India‘s GDP and to the Telecom services’ revenues. Further more CCI mobilize 29.5million jobs, i.e. 1% of the world active population. « If governments of the whole world become aware of their true economic value, highlight the authors of the study : Marc Lhermitte and Bruno Perrin, EY associates, the risk related to creation multiplies. In order to stimulate their economic potential, ICC need to become more structured and to benefit from a support policy as well as an efficient protection of the creative content. »
