The National Government aims to establish an environment that would make it possible for artists and innovators to harness their knowledge and imagination to generate incremental value and wealth, ultimately leading to the development of the Philippine Creative Economy.
The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) constantly evaluates the competitive edge of enterprises to formulate strategies that can enhance their contribution to growth.
Under the National Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) Development Agenda, the DTI and its attached agencies are committed not only to provide programs that hone the creative workers' talent, but also assist them in product development, technology, financing, and marketing to encourage and sustain entrepreneurial activities in the long-term. These institutions likewise forge partnerships with groups to preserve cultural skills and knowledge passed on for generations. |

enterprises to the SME Unified Lending Opportunities for
National Growth (SULONG), DTI's lending program

(CITEM) is an organization mandated to market the Philippines

Similar enterprises are encouraged to cluster together to gain recognition as a group and improve their competitiveness. They are likewise advised to seek their own niche and offer an integrated range of services, from conceptualization, manufacturing, to delivery.
Finally, the Government recognizes that an important part of the country's effort to nurture the creative industry is the effective enforcement of an Intellectual Property (IP) Rights system. A national IP system stimulates creative endeavors, improves on existing technology, attracts both foreign and local investments, ensures the market's access to cutting-edge innovations, and secures the exclusive rights of citizens to their creations. |
