The cultural and creative industries are characterized by their fragmentation into a large number of small entities. 95% of all actors are micro-entities with up to nine employees, primarily individuals. Given the rapid development of CCIs in recent years, their fragmentation, and the poor quality of national-level data, it is difficult to gain a clear overview of the sector's structure. This subsequently limits the strategic development of CCIs not only in Prague but throughout the entire Czech Republic.

How was the mapping conducted?

The Ministry of Culture's initiative aimed to support the regional strategic development of CCIs during 2023–2024. The first phase involved analyzing data obtained in cooperation with the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic and the Czech Statistical Office.
