Summary/Abstract: Globalization, development of information and telecommunication technologies as well as innovation development and research are one of the main factors that form contemporary society. As such, economies of most countries face many challenges. One of them is a search of an alternative source that would allow their further development. Therefore, creative economy goes into prominence. The aim of this article is to map conditions for creative economy development in the regions of the Czech Republic. Based on the selected methodology, we computed and analysed the Creativity Index which is composed of talent, technology, and tolerance areas.
