Description
This report, which was jointly commissioned by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and Creative England, represents a number of developments in thinking about the links between research and the UK’s burgeoning creative economy. The report hopes to gain a better understanding of different models of Knowledge Exchange activity and provide an initial scoping of the potential for new strategic and collaborative initiatives. With considerable public investment being made in HE-based research and business support services, there is an imperative to ensure its impact is maximised. Specifically, the research aimed to scope the nature and size of Knowledge Exchange activity across England (outside of London), and undertake gap analysis of engagement between higher education institutions (HEI) specialising in Creative Arts and Media research and creative businesses operating in Film, Television, Games, Digital Media and creative services. The report presents its aims and objectives, methodology, key findings, interpretations and conclusions, followed by a number of recommendations.
