The creative industries included in the report involve cultural heritage, visual and performing arts, audiovisual industries, publishing and printed media, new media, design and creative services including advertising and architecture.
China is strong in the production and the level of exports of design goods.
From the trade perspective, design is the most important creative industry for Chinese mainland, with exports of design goods in 2005 amounting to US$ 47 billion, or US$ 68.9 billion when the exports from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) are included, said the report.
This means that the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong SAR together account for more than 30 percent of total world exports of design goods.
The most competitive products for China in the design subgroup in terms of value of exports and market share are fashion, interior products, toys and jewellery, the report said.
