The Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM) of the Department of Trade and Industry invites all interested creatives to participate in the Creative Futures 2022, an online conference that gathers the creative ecosystem to shape the future of the Philippine creative economy. The event will be held via an online conference-hosting platform, Hopin, from July 28-29, 2022. 

Creative Futures is the flagship event of CREATEPhilippines. DTI-CITEM's trade promotions program highlights the Philippines' creative industries as a high-potential export sector and driver of economic growth. Now on its 2nd edition, Creative Futures will revolve around Creative Governance, Advertising, Design, Film, Tourism, Fashion, Game Development, Heritage, Dance, Esports, and Communication Design. We hope to spark conversation on the industry's future amid the ongoing global pandemic guided by the conference theme, "Tomorrow."
