The Creative Industries is growing amidst the current downturn. Job conversion and training opportunities abound as demand for creative talent continues to increase.

The Creative Industries (CI) Fair 2009 is the first of its kind that the Government is organising to showcase various opportunities such as jobs, career conversion and skills upgrading in the Creative sectors covering the Arts & Culture, Media & Communications, and the Design subsectors.
