Supporting Scotland’s Digital Media Industries within Electronic Markets
Scottish Enterprise focuses on those industries that can grow faster and bring more benefit to Scotland such as better jobs, international growth opportunities or inward investment for Scottish businesses resulting in a stronger economy.
What are “Electronic Markets”?
Electronic Markets address the worldwide opportunities for products and services which are enabled by integrated electronics, intelligent information systems and innovative content.
Their common features are:
• World-wide growth opportunities
• Strong demand-pull
• Emerging business models
• Resonance with Scottish capability: established or to be developed
What is the role of the Electronic Markets priority industry team?
The role of the Scottish Enterprise team is to continually analyse current and future market opportunities and to articulate a strategy whereby Scotland can derive greatest economic benefit from capitalising on those opportunities.
Further, it is the role of the team to work with colleagues and stakeholders to maintain promotion and implementation of the evolving strategy.
What’s happening at the moment?
Since the formation of the new Electronic Markets team, Scottish Enterprise has undertaken an extensive programme of research to make a preliminary survey of the landscape for Electronic Markets. Based on this research we have initially identified four market areas for immediate further investigation:
• Broadcasting
• Security
• Serious Gaming
• Intelligent Transport Systems
Whilst these will provide immediate focus, they are by no means exclusive and additional market areas will be considered on an on-going basis.
Scottish Enterprise - working with partners to develop supporting infrastructure for Electronic Markets. Key locations include:
Digital Media Quarter @ Pacific Quay, Glasgow
Scottish Enterprise has invested millions in the development of Pacific Quay as a digital media hub. STV moved to the site in 2006 and the BBC’s move to its new flagship broadcasting centre will be complete by September 2007.
Film City Glasgow
Adjacent to the Pacific Quay site, Film City Glasgow is being developed as a production and post-production base for the film and television community and houses Scotland’s first Dolby Theatre and Digital Picture Grading Suite.
Seabraes Yards, Dundee
The Seabraes Yards development in Dundee is a 20-acre site which will offer 360,000 square feet of high quality accommodation in a purpose-built environment. The first major development on the site is vision@seabraes, providing 100,000 sq ft of low maintenance, energy efficient space.
