The European Creative Business Network (ECB Network) is a foundation, established by multiple European organizations that work for and in Europe’s creative industry.
The ECB Network offers three concrete services:
1. Pitching events, where creative businesses pitch to clients and investors.
2. Creative trade missions, to enter new markets and develop new products.
3. Connecting creative businesses through the online ECB Network community.
The ECB Network has members around the European Union, which are of three origins:
1. Incubators, residencies or other creative or cultural multifunctional locations
2. Creative or cultural development agencies
3. Cities, regions or national bodies
Many important residencies, creative development agencies and cities already expressed their support for the ECB Network and became a member. Membership is free of cost for incubators, residencies and creative quarters. Cities, regions and creative development agencies pay a yearly membership fee of €500.
