: With digitalization and the support of policies, the creative industries have shown rapid
growth in the last 20 years. Open forms of collective learning, user engagement and social networks
have become popular to generate IPs and values. Meanwhile, government policy can support the
sectors through subsidies, regulations, standardization, and protections at regional and national
levels. This paper aims to explore the role of government policy in the innovation of creative
industries from a macro dynamic perspective. The research method combines a structured literature
review, a secondary document review of industry reports and government policy, and thematic
content analysis. Through in-depth studies of the UK’s and China’s animation sectors, the paper
identifies key elements of closed innovation, social innovation, and open innovation systems in the
market. Comparisons of national government policies since 2000 reveal different approaches for
countries where creative sectors are well-established, and for those starting with limited knowledge
resources. A dynamic model is developed to address the evolution of macro dynamic innovation
systems and the role of policies as interactive mechanisms. Practical implementation and future
research areas are also suggested.
