Free eLearning portal for creative entrepreneurs goes live

The free courses cover how to build a creative business including how to brand and market it, how to protect and grow a business, and more.

As the fifth SoCreative Summit concluded, the British Council announced the launch of a new initiative intent on sustainably growing the creative sector on the African continent. “The challenges facing creative entrepreneurs have been revealed in previous summits and multiple conversations with our programme stakeholders, and so we have developed the platform in an attempt to address these shortfalls through fostering an ecosystem in which young entrepreneurs can thrive,” says Farai Bayai Ncube, regional arts director for Sub-Saharan Africa at the British Council.

“While this may be the final summit in this format, we will continue to create platforms that enable young people to lead innovation, to become visionaries and to shape their futures. The impact of this investment and collaboration will inspire future global leaders, making a positive impact in Africa and the world in the years to come,” global arts director at British Council, Skinder Hundal said.
