25 Future skills for the creative industries

20.8.2026 | 13:00 – 15:00 | online via MS Teams | Invitation to the Creative Industries Forum

Digital transformation, ecological challenges and new forms of collaboration are fundamentally changing the creative industries. This also increases the demands on organizations that accompany, promote and support creative professionals. At the Creative Industries Forum, WIFI International of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber in cooperation with Kreativwirtschaft Austria (KAT) will present the newly developed CYANOTYPES competence framework, which defines 25 future competencies for the creative industries that are crucial for the current transformation processes in the CCIs.

With the help of the interactive CYANOTYPES Competence Circle – becomes visible:

  • which skills are currently particularly relevant
  • how well these are covered in existing offers
  • where there is potential for strategic development

The Creative Industries Forum provides orientation on key future skills of the creative industries, impulses for the design of future-oriented offers and further education formats and concrete tools for strategic further development. With the CYANOTYPES Blueprinter (GPT-based application), a tool is provided with which the 25 future skills can be further deepened and transferred to one’s own work. In addition, there is access to the digital toolbox and the “We are CYANOTYPES” community.
