economy" (1990s), or "network economy" and “Internet
economy” (2000s). Although there is no single definition of

fundamental principles.

manufacturing of products, services, lifelong learning and
innovation are made possible by modern technology

market globalization and sustainable development
(Ciocoiu, 2011)

• those industries that are based on individual creativity,
skill and talent with the potential to create wealth and
jobs through developing intellectual property’
(Department of Culture, Media and Sport, 1998 and 2001)
• The Unit’s original brief was for all industries based on
creativity that generated or dealt in intellectual property
(IP); but it quickly narrowed the range to those industries
that had an artistic or cultural bent, with a dash of
computer electronics, and limited the IP to copyright,
downplaying patents, trademarks and designs.
