@creativeeurope.bsky.social shows what happens when culture has a dedicated route into EU funding. Cooperation becomes possible. Mobility becomes possible. Cross-border circulation becomes possible. It's not a perfect or sufficient model, but it proves that naming & funding culture changes access.

What if creative work gets ambition — but no budget? Europe asks culture to deliver innovation, participation, digital content and resilience. But if the major strategic funds are designed elsewhere, creative organisations remain useful but underfunded.

CreativeFED @creativefed.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

The sector does not need another silo. It needs a shared front: funding, fair work, AI rights, skills, governance and recognition. Different campaigns carry different parts of the argument.

What is BrandBrief asking for? Not symbolic recognition. Concrete mechanisms. Funding. Naming. Skills. AI remuneration. Procurement. Governance. Regulation. The main demand: ring-fence at least €760m for Cultural & Creative Industries in the EU Competitiveness Fund architecture.

Name it. Fund it. Represent it. Sign on for European creative work: brandbrief.eu/petition.html

BrandBrief does not replace other campaigns. It asks where their shared goals enter Europe’s next funding, skills, AI and competitiveness architecture.

100

These are not competing demands. They are different fronts of the same problem: creative work is recognised as valuable, but still missing from too many rules, budgets and governance tables.

100

Some focus on EU budget lines. Some on fair work. Some on AI rights. Some on Horizon Europe and the European Competitiveness Fund.

100

There are many campaigns right now because the cultural and creative sector is under pressure from many sides.

The campaign focuses specifically on the Horizon Europe and European Competitiveness Fund (ECF). The goal is to name, place, and fund culture in the Horizon Europe and European Competitiveness Fund pr...

Source note: dedicated cultural instruments matter because they translate recognition into access, mobility and cooperation. Creative Europe is one example of how naming and funding culture can create capacity across borders: culture.ec.europa.eu/whats-new/ne...

A new evaluation confirms the good results and performance of Creative Europe, the European Union’s flagship programme for culture and media.

BrandBrief asks for funding, skills, fair AI rules and seats at the table.

100

But if it is not named in the architecture, it may be missing from budgets, calls and governance.

Creative work already powers digital culture, media, design, AI, public value and innovation.
