. Developing entrepreneurial skills and behavious in the subsidised sector
Entrepreneurship can be perceived as a difficult concept to conjure with when working within a public body or cultural organisation. It can be associated with commercialism rather than an approach to working that can be creative. CLP makes the case for emerging, mid-career and established cultural leaders as creative entrepreneurs, maximizing their artistic and creative practice. CLP works to establish entrepreneurial skills, behaviours and thinking as a valuable enhancement to leadership, underpinning key elements of creative practice.
Activities: Pecha Kucha and mentoring at the ICA; a course for cultural entrepreneurs at the School for Social Entrepreneurs (SSE); and a key networking opportunity at the Mind of an Entrepreneur (MOAE) event tbc.

industries, bringing in models from outside the sector and internationally.
