Creativity and Innovation Forum
The Creativity and Innovation Forum is a one-day conference that will showcase the cultural and creative industries and openlabs as a key part of the innovation ecosystem. It will focus on how these fields support entrepreneurship, social development and the circular economy. You will meet experts from public administration, innovation centers, the creative sector and the business community. The conference will offer inspiring examples from the Czech Republic and abroad, as well as expert discussions, practical workshops and presentations of specific projects.
The Forum is organized by Creative Prague and Make More in cooperation with the Openlab Association. The organization of the conference is supported by many public institutions and the Label4Future project, supported by the EU funds, which organizes the Innovation Lab and Investment Forum as a part of the programme.
