The German Creative Economy Summit will be held in Kampnagel from March 6 to 7, 2024. Organised by the Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft, the summit brings creative professionals and companies together with movers and shakers in  politics, science, administration and national funding institutions. The agenda features keynotes, panel discussions and workshops as well as an exhibition and cultural events.

Representatives of eleven submarkets

The congress brings together representatives of the music, film, books, press, architecture, broadcasting, performing arts, design, software and games, art and advertising industries. The Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft said: "Our common goal is to improve the framework conditions for our creative industries in Germany." Speakers include Dr Carsten Brosda, Senator for Culture and Media, Raphael Gielgen, trend scout, the artist Jonathan Meese, and musician Nina Sonnenberg. The summit will give plenty of insight into creative AI, financing and monetisation, internationalisation, skilled workers, intellectual property, innovation and other current topics and offers many opportunities for networking and advancing  synergy potential.

Creative industries key economic sector in Germany

The annual turnover of around EUR 175 billion (as of 2021) makes the creative industries one of Germany's most important economic sectors, the Federal Statistical Office said. Next year's summit is the third of its kind and will be held under the theme of  "Advancing the Overall Economy, Promoting Innovation, Shaping the Future" and as a nationwide industry get-together.
