With the arrival of knowledge economy era, creative industries with high value-added, knowledge-intensive, resource-saving and environment-friendly characteristics, have been chosen by many countries as pillar industries for economic development. Meanwhile, as their relations with the nation's culture and spirit, many countries pay attention to the development of creative industries on the existence and security strategy level.A notable feature of the development of creative industries is the fact that it always gather in urban centers, particularly in the neighboring areas of universities which are rich of talent and knowledge, the mechanism and pattern of interactive development between " University-creative industries clusters-City " is therefore established. Universities provide key elements such as talent and knowledge; the development of clusters contributes to the city's vitality and the urban renewal; City is providing convenient and inclusive basic condition for universities and clusters. Therefore, this paper focuses on the development of clusters of creative industries surrounding universities in the backdrop of urban renewal. Our purposes are to find out the law of interactive development between " University-creative industries clusters-City ", to guide the development of clusters of creative industries sourrounding universities in the backdrop of urban renewal, to provide reference for our country to promote the development of creative industries in the city.Based on some literature review, this paper adopts clusters of creative designing industries surrounding Tongji University as cases, and has discussed about the interactive processes between their development and urban renewal. We still have given proposals for its further development from two angles: university and government. Following are the three most important contributions:1. Systematically reveals the role of various factors in the formation of clusters of original creative industries sourrounding universities, and the interaction mechanism between "Universities-- government-industry". Particularly, we succeeded in the development and breakthrough of a regional innovation model named as "triple helix theory".2. through the interactive process between the clusters and urban renewal, and also through enterprises' space-dependence on universities, we have found out the law of spatial structures for clusters of creative industries surrounding universities and its significance to urban renewal.3. we have proposed a "generation and develop" theory for clusters of creative industries and its application framework.Ultimately, we reached a conclusion that all of the three: universities, government, urban renewal should change. Exactly speaking:For the universities, their focus should be changed from knowledge producing and talent training to the combination of knowledge producing,, talent training and social serving. This goal can be reached through changes of the development of subject planning, research, training and the interaction between government, community, and industry.For the government, it's goal should be changed from pursuiting of short-term GDP to the cultivation of regional creativity. It should respect the subjectivity of the development of industrial clusters, develop consensus with industries and universities through close cooperation, and provide key positive factors for the development of industrial clusters. In one word, it should serve as "Booster" and "Scavenger".For urban renewal, cities should transfer from the massive, radical mode and overpursuiting of large enterprises to the protection and promotion of regional vitality. Measures can include: keep the low-cost space wich is capable of incubate, insist on the principle of "gradient planning and gradually realizing", promote the spacial opening and integration of "University Campus—Clusters—Cities", build more facilities and display space for clusters, fully taking into account the needs of all interested parties , and so on.
