Skills Investment Plan for Scotland’s Creative Industries sector

Skills Investment Plan for Scotland’s Creative Industries sector

The influence and impact that the Creative Industries sector has on Scotland – both economically and culturally – is deep and varied. The headline figures alone are impressive. Some 68,500 people across Scotland are employed in the Creative Industries, with more than 13,800 enterprises generating revenue in excess of £3billion per annum.
