What next for investment in African cultural and creative industries?

As support for African CCIs gathers momentum, it is opportune to take stock of where we stand today and to look ahead at the opportunities and challenges before us, ensuring that African CCIs can access the investments necessary to realise their full potential.

This leaflet is addressed primarily to policymakers and private-sector investors interested in the CCIs. The term investment is used broadly, covering funding, financing and profit-seeking investment from both public and private players.

CCI practitioners will also find some information presented in the leaflet useful for lobbying for increased support to their sectors.
