Creative Industries: A Great Opportunity for Argentinean Exports

The Creative Industries from the City of Buenos Aires have today a great exportation potential, particularly in markets which are in their process to develop consuming preferences, like China and India, and also in emerging economies like Vietnam, Indonesia, Malasia, etc. An interesting and successful experience related to the encouraging of creative industries was the one that took place in Great Britain during former Prime Minister Tony Blair’s Government. With positive actions that helped those industries not only to develop and grow but also to be exported, they got an annual growth of 6% while British economy grew at a 3%. British’ creative industries major issues were design, music and movies. These industries also contribute to the image consumers form about the country. Music, and particularly Rock, became Great Britain’s most important creative industry from the glorious days of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in the sixties up to now. Governmental efforts to open new markets for  music and its direct relationship with tourism, especially in London and Liverpool, are both showing us the economic and strategic importance of Rock. Obviously, major governmental actions are directed to conquer China and India. Movies, Scenic Arts, Architecture and Computer Games are also included as major Creative Industries. They have an important added value and they generate prestige and incomings for highly skilled human resources. The United Kingdom marked a milestone in promoting Creative Industries, and the results are at sight.
