Summary module description:

This is a dynamic module introducing students to key aspects of starting a creative enterprise.


Aims:

This module introduces students to a range of entrepreneurial management concepts applied to the specific context of creative industries. It provides an overview of key economics shaping creative industries, as well as the entrepreneurial process from idea creation through to the start-up phase. Using a range of case studies, the module discusses managerial challenges that arise from the tension of balancing limited resources, creative ambition and strongly talent-driven business models.


Assessable learning outcomes:


  • To describe, discuss and appraise; the process of business start-up; the nature and significance of enterprise and entrepreneurial development.

  • To plan and develop a business idea into a venture plan.

  • To discuss financing sources to support a new creative venture.

  • To explain financial reporting processes including cash flow.


Additional outcomes:

Students will learn to work independently under pressure of time, and to organise diverse empirical material.
