Filling the Economy with Creativity: Developing National Projects, Products, and Brands

15 Jun , 12:15–13:45
Transformation in the World and Growth in the Creative Economy
Pavilion G, conference hall G5

The limitations of international cooperation have forced producers of creative goods and services to reconsider their own approaches to value creation. Everything needs to be reimagined starting with design, material and equipment procurement, selection of new sales channels, all the way to changing marketing strategies and selecting new target markets. At the same time, the mass exodus of foreign companies has freed up certain niches in the Russian market for import substitution. How can we provide the infrastructure to create competitive products and services? How will companies' strategies change in the new economic environment? What successful import-substitution projects/best practices are there in the creative industries? Which creative industries currently have the most potential for development?
