How culture feeds industrial innovation? A strategic evaluation from Creativewear project.

How can Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) provide innovative solutions to the Textile and Clothing (T&C) industry? CreativeWear is an Interreg MED project (2017-2019) aimed at revitalising the crisis-ridden Textile and Clothing (T&C) industry by tapping into the regional creative potentialities through the involvement of creative communities, the enhancement of cultural heritage and the adoption of customer-oriented value chains. This book evaluates the activities and outcomes of CreativeWear project and its capacity to introduce changes into creative and textile organisations, the regional innovation ecosystem and the transnational cooperation strategies.

This book evaluates the activities and outcomes of CreativeWear project and its capacity to introduce changes into creative and textile organisations, the regional innovation ecosystem and the transnational cooperation strategies. In this sense, we try to answer to the following questions: What are the key market evidences discovered during the CreativeWear project? Have the expectations and goals of the project been met? What unexpected issues have arisen? What lessons and recommendations do they provide for policy-makers and regional specialization strategies?

Drones and the Creative Industry,.

Este trabajo analiza el impacto económico de la industria creativa en la Unión Europea. El trabajo cuantifica los impactos directos e indirectos de la industria creativa, concluyendo que no sólo tienen un impacto directo en el empleo y la producción, sino que también contribuyen al progreso tecnológico y al desarrollo a largo plazo de la Unión Europea. La mayor parte de esta contribución se debe a las industrias creativas de servicios, mientras que la contribución directa de las industrias creativas manufactureras es menor.

Economic and social impact of the musical societies in the Requena-Utiel plateau.

Julio Montagut Marqués, Pau Rausell Köster

Oleana: Cuadernos de Cultura Comarcal. No.Nº 32, 2018

Musical societies are one of the most important signs of Valencian identity, due to the deep roots they have in our Autonomous Region, which is why they were declared "of local relevance" in 2011, and since then work is being done to have them declared "of cultural interest". The SSMM bring together a series of particularities, properties and concepts that make them unique and that include actions such as associationism, voluntary work, musical production and training, recreational activities, etc., causing with all the output generated an economic and social impact on the population and the region. In this paper, we would like to focus on some of the consequences of the SSMM in the Meseta...

Cultural attitudes and tourist destination prescription.

Pardo-García, C Coll-Serranoa, V Rausell-Köster, P Pérez Bustamante-Yábar, D

This research note analyzes the effect of cultural, cognitive and hedonic attitudes of the urban tourist (Brida, Nogare, & Scuderi, 2017; Um & Crompton, 1990) towards the destination on being a prescriber of it. A tourist prescriber of the destination is not only highly satisfied with the destination but also recommends it strongly to others, the type of tourist policy makers are most interested in. Undoubtedly, satisfied tourists are more likely to recommend a destination (Chen & Chen, 2010), or develop loyalty towards a destination (Yuksel, Yuksel, & Bilim, 2010). However, tourist satisfaction can be: (1) a direct consequence of the quality of the services received; or (2) a broader...

The Calatrava model: reflections on resilience and urban plasticity

Boix, Rafael; Rausell, Pau; Abeledo, Raül

European Planning Studies. No.Volume 25, Issue 1 (2017)

The article introduces a critical reflection on the effects that the version of cultural capitalism based on large events and architectural symbols has on the resilience of cities when used as an engine, and not as a complement to the policies of urban transformation. The article introduces as a case of study the so-called ‘Calatrava model’ of the city of Valencia. The model of a cultural bubble of Valencia, designed to enable a new space, is developed and contrasted with other two examples of urban transformation designed to revitalize spaces: Bilbao – symbolically represented by Frank Gehry's Guggenheim museum – and the Barcelona 22@ – symbolically represented by Jean Nouvel's Agbar...

Through the notion of ‘plasticity’ we analyse how, despite the overall failure of the Calatrava model and its negative effect on the short-term ability of the city to absorb shocks, Valencia is able to adapt and absorb the urban transformation around the Calatrava's architectural complex and to incorporate it into their processes of dynamic resilience.
