Abstract: Creative Industries are those industries which combine the creation, production, and commercialization of creative elements. DCMS identified several ‘industrial’ sectors, starting from advertising, architecture, art and antiques, and going to computer games, crafts, design, film and video, publishing, software, television and radio, all and each incorporating a different technology. Creative Industries are seen as a tool for innovation against poverty, having an important economic impact worldwide. Creative entrepreneurship represents the practice of setting up a business in a creative industry. The creative entrepreneur is concerned with the creation and exploitation of creative or intellectual capital. The aim of this paper is to offer an overview of creative industries and their economic impact at international level.
