Comprised of businesses in the fields of architecture, visual arts, design, gaming, marketing, publishing and the performing arts (just to name a few), creative industries are a big source of jobs and economic growth. In Luxembourg they amount to 6.1% of the total number of Luxembourg companies and weigh a little less than one billion euros in terms of annual turnover (2014).
All of this represents creative industries making a significant contribution to Luxembourg’s GDP by adding value to the companies and organisations in which they operate. In addition to this direct economic value, creative industries play an important role in the development of innovation, recognized as a key factor in the continuous health and growth of the national economy.
