About Us
The Creative Coalition Campaign was formed in August 2009 to encourage the Government to combat the threat that online copyright infringement, including illegal file-sharing, presents to future content creation not to mention many jobs, including sound engineers, camera crews, set designers, IT workers, make-up artists, journalists, printworkers, script writers, proofreaders, retail shop assistants and freelance photographers, among others.
According to the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the creative industries now account for economic output of at least £60 billion per annum. This translates to more than eight per cent of UK GDP and puts the sector ahead of both construction and tourism in terms of its contribution to the UK economy.
Various surveys have suggested that the number of UK citizens involved in infringing copyright in relation to films, TV and music is between five million and 10 million. This represents a significant threat to UK jobs.
