This project presents a preliminary technical analysis of the internationalisation potential of cultural and creative sectors in the Canary Islands. It focuses on identifying priority subsectors beyond audiovisual industries, assessing structural strengths and weaknesses, and defining strategic lines for public intervention. The report highlights that, despite a growing economic and creative relevance, these sectors face persistent barriers, including business fragmentation, limited international networks, weak management capacities, and territorial imbalances. Several subsectors show significant potential, such as performing arts, cultural heritage, design, crafts, and creative services, although their capacity for sustained internationalisation remains constrained. In response, the project proposes the development of the PROEXCA-Cultura programme as a structural policy instrument aimed at strengthening capacities, fostering cooperation, and facilitating access to international markets. The document constitutes an intermediate stage in a broader process, laying the analytical and strategic foundations for a future operational programme to support the international projection of Canary Islands’ cultural ecosystem.

Los episodios recientes de DANA han tenido un impacto significativo sobre infraestructuras, empresas, profesionales autónomos y dinámicas productivas del sector audiovisual, especialmente en zonas vulnerables del territorio valenciano. A pesar de la relevancia económica y cultural del sector, falta una evaluación sistemática e integral de los daños y de las capacidades reales de respuesta. Esta ausencia de diagnóstico limita la eficacia de las medidas públicas y la coordinación entre agentes. El proyecto responde a esta brecha de conocimiento con un enfoque aplicado, interdisciplinar y orientado a la acción.

The CULT.T project aims to hybridise technological and artistic-cultural knowledge through a STEAM approach within European higher education institutions (HEIs) with a technical and technological profile. This initiative seeks to respond to the growing presence of digital technologies in the valorisation and use of cultural assets, by encouraging women with a humanities background to enter STEM fields of study and increasing their employment opportunities in a labour market marked by strong gender imbalances.

ESPACIOS (Espais) is an initiative promoted by the Ministry of Culture and developed in collaboration with the University of Valencia. Its aim is to generate knowledge on infrastructure, spaces, and facilities dedicated to culture, creativity, and innovation.
