The Creative Vitality™ Index (CVI™) is a sophisticated creative-economy measurement tool that arms stakeholders with highly reliable data about an area's creative sectors. The most dynamic creative economy report available today, the CVI™ provides an annual measure of the health and creative vitality of the arts in a specific area. The CVI™ augments the efforts of arts agency leadership and advocates in building strategy and creating policy to strengthen creative sectors or in response to a deficiency. This tool goes far beyond traditional economic impact studies to include annual comparative data about commercial and non-profit creative enterprises and occupations, as well as consumer spending in key creative sectors. As part of WESTAF's commitment to the ongoing enhancement to the CVI™, all CVI™ data will soon be offered in an online format via CVI™ Data on Demand™, a new web tool that allows users to log in and access a variety of reports and combinations of data packaged to your preference--on the fly.

When you purchase a CVI™ report, you gain immediate access to aggregated data sets for your area that are established, longitudinal, and annually maintained--powerful data that has been analyzed to produce a single index number reflecting the relative economic health of your creative economy. Years of research, data gathering, and analysis by WESTAF means that your CVI™ report is ready and available now. In addition to an expansive report that includes all data and analysis for your area, commissioning a CVI™ now means immediate access to Data on Demand™.
