Recommendation 33

33 Paragraph: 191

Initiatives focused on clustering have proved successful for facilitating growth in the creative industries.

Conclusion
Initiatives focused on clustering have proved successful for facilitating growth in the creative industries. However, the current landscape of initiatives aimed at supporting innovation in the sector lacks cohesion. A more streamlined approach is needed to avoid duplication and inefficiency, alongside longer-term funding commitments that offer greater stability to business owners and investors. The tendency of Ministers and government bodies to constantly reinvent or introduce new initiatives is having a detrimental effect on the very businesses they are hoping to support.
