Cultural innovation is a process of change, based on strategies and ideas that lead to satisfy the development of a specific community.
In Italy the cultural and creative sector has faced important changes over the last decade. The digitalization is a transforming force for all sectors. It changes the products and services creation, and how to put them on the market and their use. This change is particularly emphasized in the creative industries.
What is certain is that technology has brought and will continue to make significant changes in the cultural industry. A new architecture ecosystem is emerging that shows great opportunities. The integrated consumer experience is at the center of the most successful business models, increasingly fulfilled by new market incomings or partnerships between new incomings and players already present on the market.
This platform was created in virtue of that technology become a part of the urban system, and with the determination to connect innovators with the highlighted challenges by active companies in the cultural and creative sector at national and international level.
