A shared movement that connects the past, present, and future of the global creative economy. Delegates from 80 nations, one home in Jakarta.
Countdown
TO 21 OCTOBER 2026
Counting down to 21 October 2026, 00:00 WIB (Jakarta time).
Background
Creativity is not intellectual problem-solving. It’s something received, flowing through a person from a universal source greater than themselves, not manufactured.
World Conference on Creative Economy (WCCE) is a movement and a global platform focused on the creative economy's role in global sustainable development.
It serves as a space for policymakers, industry players, academics, and other stakeholders to discuss, collaborate, and address challenges and opportunities in this rapidly growing sector.
Main Theme
A key theme of WCCE based on the belief that by providing equal opportunities for all individuals regardless of age, gender, background and geographic location, the creative economy will bridge the gap between economic and cultural development communities.
Every WCCE will be conducted under "Inclusively Creative" with additional theme compound raised by the host country
