About Us

We are the city's organization for development of culture.

Our mission is to create an environment that supports the development of culture and creative industries and contributes to improving the quality of life of the city's residents. Through our activities, we connect the needs of different actors and bring innovative approaches to the development of culture in Prague, both locally and internationally.

Culture is the driver of urban development!

That culture is spirit-enriching and can bring a profound experience to a person is nothing new. But little is said about its positive contributions to areas seemingly unrelated to the cultural core. Culture has a proven positive impact on human mental and physical health, the cultural and creative sectors are areas of high added economic value and contribute significantly to GDP, and last but not least, culture is a driver of urban development and an integral part of improving the quality of life in the city. That's why we try to create a suitable environment for it.

Why?

Our mission is to create space for the development of culture in cities leading to the improvement of the quality of life of its citizens.

What?

We offer space to make safe decisions about investments in culture and public life thanks to data and expertise. We create a dialogue between cultural actors, residents and cities. We formulate innovative and systemic visions for the development of culture.

How?

We identify the needs of all stakeholders and bring them into dialogue with each other. We apply data and innovations for the systemic development of culture and public space in cities.

About Us

O nás
We are a city-founded organization and our mission is to conceptually develop culture and promote cultural and creative industries.

We believe that culture is an investment!

Culture and the cultural and creative industries have long since fulfilled not only a social role. The benefits of culture can be observed in economic development, the promotion of the social environment, in the development of education. Cultural activities also have a positive impact on the physical and mental health of a person, promote creativity and innovation, improve interpersonal understanding. Culture is the driver of urban development and creates a better environment for us all to live.

We create space for the development of culture in the city

Our work is based on four pillars:

  1. Data in Culture — Strategic Planning
  2. Cultural and creative sectors — KKO mapping
  3. Community projects — development of culture in Prague localities
  4. International partnership — cooperation with foreign experts

Our vision is a city where culture is accessible and accessible to all

We strive to ensure that everyone who wants to attend cultural events in Prague, but also all those who want to create and make a living from culture, have the opportunity. We are working on this goal together as a team.
- Přístupnost a otevřenost
- Pilotování a znalost
- Inovace
- Rozmanitost

We are a group of professionals who believe in the power and benefits of culture.

Our team consists of a diverse group of experts. Thanks to the combination of different expertise and perspectives, we succeed in working with key partners to advance projects towards our core mission - the development of culture in Prague. We focus on data analytics, development of cultural and creative industries, community projects and international conferences and meetings.
