the origin

A corporate foundation.
A social purpose.

The Creative Industries Foundation was born in the heart of one of the most important companies in the cultural sector and also one of the longest-running, with 20 years of activity behind it: Last Tour. A name that is associated with major festivals and events, national and international tours and the development of artistic talent, cultural and social consultancy work, training and dissemination, among other activities. Last Tour is a sustainable and independent organisation with the firm purpose of creating, building and developing cultural and social initiatives that contribute to the well-being and development of society.

Social impact being intrinsic to Last Tour’s DNA, the growing tendency to promote projects for the dissemination or development of the non-profit music sector led it to separate its market-oriented business activity from its social focus, thus creating the Creative Industries Foundation as a new agent in the third sector.

“If not for culture, then what are we fighting for?"

W.Churchill

Our mission is to contribute to placing culture and creativity in a prioritized position socially, politically, and economically.

Culture and creativity have a multidimensional contribution to make to society; they are vehicles for cohesion, they develop innovation, they affect the spirit and mood of human beings, they are a tool for communication and, of course, they also make an economic contribution and generate jobs which, in many cases, have an added value.

For these reasons, culture and creativity must be at the heart of making society more cohesive, fair, innovative, positive and able to look to the future with imaginative solutions to the challenges to be faced.

We do not know what the future will be like, but culture will remain the universal language in which we will ask questions.

This is our role: to question the present and challenge the future, providing wealth and value.
