Kulturprojekte Berlin — Creative City Berlin. Creative City Berlin is the point of contact and platform for artists and professionals within the creative sector. It provides information about sponsor programmes, setting up a business, awards, further education, scholarships and more. For participating artists and professionals, or those planning to move to the capital, Creative City Berlin provides a useful network of contacts. Artists and professionals have the opportunity to pose questions on the site, which are then forwarded on to the appropriate contact or Berlin institution. The project is organised by Berlin's Department for Cultural Affairs and the Senate Department for Economy (Projekt Zukunft (Project Future)).

Information from them and other Berlin Institutions (IHK, Berlin Partner among others) is collated and channeled centrally to Creative City Berlin.

Revised Feb 17, 2014 Creativity is the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality. Creativity is characterised by the ability to perceive the world in new ways, to find hidden patterns, to make connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena, and to generate solutions. Creativity involves two processes: thinking, then producing.

If you have ideas, but don’t act on them, you are imaginative but not creative. “Creativity is the process of bringing something new into being. Creativity requires passion and commitment. It brings to our awareness what was previously hidden and points to new life. What is Innovation? Innovation is the implementation of a new or significantly improved product, service or process that creates value for business, government or society. Some people say creativity has nothing to do with innovation— that innovation is a discipline, implying that creativity is not.
