As part of the program: Support, development and integration of the cultural and creative sectors
The "Study of the Production Chains of the Music Sector in Poland" was conducted in 2023 by a research team led by Professor Dorota Ilczuk. Its goal was to identify the mechanisms by which the music sector operates, with particular emphasis on those working in the industry and its stakeholders. To better understand their perspectives, the research focus was narrowed to popular music.
During the implementation of "Who is Smiling?", an innovative approach based on the concept of production and value chains was used, first used in the study of creative economy sectors in the CICERONE Creative Industries Cultural Economy Production Network project (H2020).
