What does this study entail?
The media and creative industries have undergone significant change in recent years as a result of digitalisation, internationalisation, and conglomeration, but also under the influence of socio-cultural, political, and economic developments. Think about the emergence of streaming services in the music and television industries, user-generated content in journalism, and the impact of artificial intelligence on creativity at large.
