The 1st International CILS Conference, promoted and sponsored by the CMC_E (Communicating in Multilingual Contexts meets the Enterprises) project, an initiative funded with the support of the Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Union, highlights the value of Creativity and Innovation in language studies as a means of fostering intercultural communication and as a key factor for the development of personal, professional and social competences. Indeed, the Conference aims at highlighting the relevance of such concepts which Education at any level, in any sector and any time should continuously stimulate and enhance. In particular, CILS speakers, coming from many different EU countries, Canada and Taiwan will face the issues of: a) creativity in language usage, b) creativity and technology and c) linguistic creativity in business settings.
