 Central American Leaders Commit to Promoting Creative Industries

Central American leaders and the private sector are working together to develop the region's creative industries. A recent meeting in Guatemala City brought together representatives from the Organization for World Intellectual Property (WIPO), the governments of Central America and the region's creative industries.

The meeting focused on the potential of creative industries to contribute to economic development and job creation in the region. Participants discussed the importance of protecting intellectual property rights (IPRs) to foster innovation and creativity. They also highlighted the need for government support to help creative businesses grow and succeed.

"Creative industries are a key engine of growth for our economies," said Juan Carlos Pellecer, Vice Minister of Economic Affairs for Guatemala. "They create jobs, boost innovation, and help us connect with the world."

The meeting resulted in a commitment from the region's governments to develop a plan to promote creative industries. The plan will focus on providing support for education and training, access to finance, and IPR protection.

The plan is expected to be completed in 2024.
