Government and Investor Support Challenges and Future Visions Relative to Successful Creative Entrepreneurship in Ghana
摘要
The purpose of the study is to examine government and investor support constraints, as well as future visions relative to successful creative entrepreneurship in Ghana. Two future workshops were organized to source data for the study. Workshops as arts-based methods are usually useful for the study of creative works in helping to strengthen the research-practice-knowledge nexus. The results point at both public sector and private sector challenges. The implications of the challenges and the declining state of the sub-sector are discussed, and future visions are proffered to solve the challenges. On the issue of future visions relative to government and investors support to ensure successful creative entrepreneurship activities, participants at the workshop proposed a public support funding scheme; grants for capacity building relative to training and innovation, equipment, and machinery; construction of regional and district theaters and Exim banks to finance artistic and creative entrepreneurs.
