The professor Chuan Li, member of Econcult, and the professor Vicente Coll of MC2 from the same department of Applied Economics of the University of Valencia will make a research stay in it Department of Industry and Cultural Management of the Universidad de Jiao Tong de Shanghai from the next March to July
During this period, both researchers will collaborate closely with their Chinese colleagues to develop a collaborative study series focused on: The digital transition of cultural organizations and spatial distribution of creative spaces, based on the scene theory. This collaboration is framed in an institutional relationship that Econcult and the Shanghai Jiao Tong University has consolidated throughout the last three years, through joint projects of research and teaching. It should be noted that, last year, both institutions organized a summer course focused on culture-based sustainability approach, which reinforces the commitment of both entities with the cultural innovation and the sustainability.
The cultural management program of the Shanghai Jiao Tong University has managed to position itself as the number one in China, which turns this stay into a strategic opportunity to advance knowledge about the challenges and opportunities that cultural organizations face in the digital age. This collaboration with various Chinese institutions consolidates a common work that includes Chinese researchers developing their doctoral theses within the Econcult group. In this context, in the coming weeks the doctoral thesis of Ying Wang, researcher at the Institute of Cultural Industries at Yunnan University, on the impact of creative spaces in cities will be publicly presented.
