Projects

Since 2012, CREATe has conducted and supported more than 60 projects relating to cultural production and digital markets. CREATe introduced a new interdisciplinary approach to vexing policy questions, initially working as a UK wide consortium with academics from law, economics, management, computer science, sociology, psychology, ethnography and critical studies. Since 2018, CREATe is more firmly anchored in the School of Law at the University of Glasgow (intellectual property law, information law, competition law), and works across disciplines as part of the University’s new Advanced Research Centre (ARC). 

Our research programme creates independent evidence and analysis that enables the creative industries to produce not just economic growth but creative opportunities for citizens and consumers in an age where cultural production should be limited only by time and imagination.

In 2023 we were awarded major infrastructure funding from the Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC), which enabled us, as the Centre for Regulation of the Creative Economy, to broaden our research, covering a range of topics at the intersection of the domains of Creativity, Technology and Markets. We have structured the new agenda into seven research themes.

In 2018 and 2020, we won two large grants as part of the AHRC Creative Industries Policy & Evidence Centre (PEC) and the H2020 project “reCreating Europe: Rethinking digital copyright law for a culturally diverse, accessible, creative Europe”. In this phase, our projects were organised under three main themes: Creative Industries, Public Domain and Competition and Markets.
