CCI Thrive
Bespoke Business Models + Innovative Practices of Cross-Sectoral Cultural + Creative Collaboration

The successor project to Digital Cross Over (2019-2021), CCI Thrive explores cutting-edge digital technologies of the creative and cultural sectors. It examines cross-sectoral business cooperations + coproductions using a data-driven approach to inspire innovative new business models, encourage business ventures, boost revenue within the cultural sector + foster better insight into audience preferences. Besides commercial considerations, CCI Thrive will furthermore accommodate vital aspects of cultural creation such as content, green transition, ethical and cultural values.
