European Creative Hubs Network
Athens, Greece
The European Creative Hubs Network (ECHN) is a peer-led network with a mission to enhance the creative, economic and social impact of creative hubs.
This is the only network in Europe specifically tailored to support hubs that host and connect multiple creative businesses. As focal points for cultural and creative professionals, creative hubs play a key role at the intersection of culture, economy, society, education and technology, and they offer the most effective way to support the growth and impact of the CCS. To achieve this, hubs themselves need to network, to pool resources, share best practices, and build on advocacy, policy and opportunities - and this is what ECHN offers to its members.
