The growth in the Creative Industries sector has been significant during the past decade. These businesses are of great value to an area both in terms of their unique services and their ability to positively impact the cultural identity of their local environment.

Creative Bedfordshire has been established to capitalise on the opportunities presented by the growing Creative sector and serve both the local business community and the area as a whole. This will be achieved through the delivery of a range of support facilities along with providing a voice for the Creative community.

The Creative Industries are recognised as a priority sector by a range of local government organisations and partnerships in the area. The Creative Bedfordshire ambition is to work collaboratively with these organisations in representing the needs of the Creative community whilst also providing a clear picture of the strength and the importance of this sector in Bedfordshire.
