Nordicity
Music Canada, the national association representing the major labels in Canada, asked Nordicity to conduct a profile and economic impact assessment of the live music industry in Ontario. This study is the first of its kind.
Nordicity and Peter Miller were retained by ACTRA, Canadian Media Guild, Directors Guild of Canada, Friends of Canadian Broadcasting, and Unifor to analyze the economic challenges facing Canadian television in light of the CRTC’s regulatory policy decisions pursuant to the Let’s Talk TV (LTTV) hearings.
Film Distributors’ Association (FDA) commissioned Saffery Champness and Nordicity to prepare the following report on the economic impact of the film distribution sector in the UK.

In 2014, Nordicity, in association with Drew Wylie Ltd., was appointed to undertake a review of Scotland’s literature and publishing sector on behalf of Creative Scotland. The review made an important contribution to Creative Scotland’s development of its Arts Strategy, Creative Industries Strategy, Film Strategy and International Strategy.

Nordicity was commissioned by Music PEI to develop a profile, economic impact assessment and series of strategic recommendations to leverage the sector’s strengths and advance the industry.
Nordicity first analyzed the economic impact of the CFC’s alumni in 2012 and was engaged again in the spring of 2014 to develop a “Phase Two” report. This report assesses once again how attending the CFC has had an impact on alumni career trajectories and productivity, and the ensuing economic impacts of those activities.
Women in Music Canada engaged Nordicity to undertake a profile of the employment of women in Ontario’s music industry.
