Presentation: InsightsOut Africa - Creative Economy Funding, Financing and Investment
Powered by the British Council, Insights Out Africa is a research and evidence programme developing new knowledge and insight to inform policy, partnership and investment in the African Creative Economy. A consortium of leading creative economy experts committed to driving positive change in Africa’s creative economy was convened, comprising Andani.Africa, Creative Economy Practice at CcHUB, HEVA Fund, and Tom Fleming Creative Consultancy.
Established with a vision to transform the African creative landscape, focused initially on Sub-Saharan Africa, Insights Out Africa is dedicated to promoting research by Africans, for Africans, advocating for evidence-based decision-making and strategic investments to unlock the full potential of Africa’s cultural and creative industries (CCIs).
This presentation summarises InsightsOut Africa’s inaugural research, illuminating the funding, financing and investment landscape and deep diving into emerging trends, opportunities and challenges facing creative entrepreneurs in Kenya, Nigeria, Senegal and South Africa.
