This symposium will bring together academic research and critical debate 
about the working practices of the Cultural and Creative Industries. The 
event is open to both scholars and practitioners engaged with the 
creative field. It will be an opportunity to share new academic research 
alongside insights from the professional world in a welcoming setting 
that fosters critical debate and networking between academic and 
professionals in the industry.*This symposium aims to explore the 
working practices of the Cultural and Creative Industries through 
interdisciplinary lenses. *
*Organised into two panel discussions, the speakers will be invited to 
share their practice and research in*conversation with attendees. A 
sketcher will be on site to live-draw the anecdotes and connections of 
each panel. Attendees will also be invited to display a research poster 
or exhibit their creative work throughout the event and discuss their 
work with peers during the networking coffee breaks.

Cultural and Creative Industries encompass a wide array of sectors, from 
art and music production to design, fashion, and film. These industries 
play a crucial role in shaping our cultural landscape. However, they 
also face complex challenges in their effort to balance the cultural and 
commercial worlds. Through this symposium, we seek to unravel those 
challenges and delve into topics including:

-*labour and entrepreneurship in cultural production; *

-*the role of cultural intermediaries in shaping the cultural agenda; *

-*the mechanisms of symbolic and economic value creation within creative 
ecosystems; *

-*the intersection of AI and creativity; *

-*the socio-political influences that shape creative industries, *

-*how cultural production intersects with broader societal issues and 
power dynamics. *
