The 4th ECIPE-Korea Project International Workshop
Insights into Cultural Industries: New Approaches through Business and Economic Perspectives
While becoming increasingly global and ubiquitous, culture and its associated industries have had to face a growing list of challenges, from the freedoms of artists to people’s ability to access their work. Because art, ideas, design, composition, imagination and intellectual achievement are all pervasive in the way we communicate, consume, and think, these issues essentially shape the way culture operates and flourishes in our daily lives.
To better understand these issues, the Korea Project will be holding its bi-annual international workshop at ECIPE in Brussels. Featuring key scholars from East Asia and Europe, this workshop will provide critical insights into problems of increasing significance, the way businesses and policy makers have responded to them, and highlight important lessons from the experiences of other countries. An open discussion will follow the presentations, where participants are invited to take the floor, exchange views and share insights. The event is supported by Academy of Korean Studies and Korean Mission to the EU/Korean Embassy to Belgium.
