Data Set for Pilot Study of Innovation in the Western Cape Cultural and Creative Industries, 2020-2022

This anonymised unit level data (n=21) was collected as part of piloting three questionnaires to measure innovation in the Western Cape cultural and creative industries in multiple institutional sectors 1) formal businesses, 2) informal businesses and households and 3) non-profit organisations and government departments. Innovation was defined in terms of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's Oslo Manual (2018). Institutional sectors were defined in terms of the criteria given in the System of National Accounts (2008) and the cultural and creative industries was defined using the UNESCO Framework for Cultural Statistics (2009) combined with Statistics South Africa standard industrial classifications (2012) to the 5-digit level (see KEY tab). Data was collected with via interview (Teams/in-person) or via self-completion (Adobe PDF form). The data were collected during 2023 and 2024, and refer to the reference period 2020-2022.<b>Indicators:</b> [1] Actor &amp; sector indicator categories. Unit of observation: identity and location; industrial category; industrial sub-category (SIC7); industrial sub-category (own); employment; turnover; distribution of turnover by location of clientele/constituency; age; structure; gender; formal educational level; income (2022). [2] Innovation &amp; system indicator categories. Innovation &amp; innovation activities. product innovation; zero-price products; novelty of product innovation; distribution of turnover by product novelty; who developed the product innovation; why develop the product innovation; process innovation; who developed the process innovation; why develop the process innovation; performed R&amp;D; types of non-R&amp;D innovation activities. Sector conditions and innovation strategies. degree of importance of sector-specific factors; factors in decisions to introduce innovations with social and environmental benefits; factors in decisions to start or execute innovation activities; impacts of legislation on innovation activities; technology use (2020-2022) and planned use (2023-2025); cooperation on innovation activities; cooperation partner by location; applied for and obtained, applied for and not obtained, or not applied for funding; use of existing tax incentives; types of IP protection; IP-out transactions; IP-in transactions; willingness to sell IP rights. Innovations with social and environmental benefits. social benefits of innovation and contribution to society; environmental benefits of innovation and contribution to environmental protection.
