Philip Schlesinger, Melanie Selfe and Ealasaid Munro presented their interim findings on their in-depth study of Cultural Enterprise Office (CEO) to staff and board on 11 November. The research project involves a comprehensive organisational analysis of CEO's support for cultural micro-businesses in Scotland and is funded by the AHRC's Creative Economy Knowledge Exchange programme. The project has already had an impact on CEO's in-house thinking as well as its fund-raising. This is the first of three planned events, with others to come in January and March. Methodological challenges posed by the study will be discussed at CREATe's upcoming capacity-building event on 31 January 2014.
