TDP Culture; Initiation of a Transnational Development Program for the CCIs in the BSR

The TDP Culture project works on promotion of creative entrepreneurship in the Baltic Sea region.

The cultural heritage in the Baltic Sea region is very rich and the cultural life is important for the economic growth of the region. Because of this, many organizations are working on a national basis to promote cultural and creative industries. The more organizations cooperate across the borders, the greater impact on the cultural and creative industries in the Baltic Sea region. However, lack of funding has made it difficult to establish long lasting cultural collaborations across the borders. The TDP Culture project therefore aims to strengthen the transnational cooperation of cultural and creative industries in the Baltic Sea region.

A partnership of creative industries and associations in the Baltic Sea region will be established. Through workshops and meetings, the partners will create a common vision for a larger transnational culture project. The goal is to expand the partnership and include more partners.
