Designing an Open Architecture for the Creative Industry
Companies in the Culture and Creative Industry are characterized by highly networked value chains. However, this value network lacks a profound support in terms of information technology and structure resulting in time-consuming and error-prone manual labor. To overcome these challenges, we conceptualize an application framework for creative industries. In particular a software architecture design and a data design will be proposed with the help of a design science research approach. The goal of the resulting application framework is to support the digital transformation of companies in the creative industry towards collaborative networks.
