Abstract

Approaches to the creative and cultural industries classification differs from continent to continent as the study DINÂMIA (2009) shows. This explain the number of classification that exists according to the purpose, country etc. The paper focus therefore on the classification of creative industries in Slovakia. This model has been applied on the Nitra Self-governing Region. Results showed that almost 77% of creative industries are localised in towns of the region with the strong polarisation of Nitra town, more than 60% of firms are micro- or small businesses. Creative industries are more concentrated in county Komárno and Nitra in comparison to region. The weaknesses of this model and the future development of the research are outlined in the conclusion.

Keywords: creative industries, localisation coefficient, Nitra Self-governing Region
