Goldsmiths’ Institute for Creative & Cultural Entrepreneurship (ICCE) provides enterprise education to the creative and cultural sectors, and supports research into new approaches to business and financial models in the creative economy. It offers a range of academic programmes, and presents activities and events to promote an environment in which creative and cultural entrepreneurship can flourish. Our approach is to integrate entrepreneurship within the development of creative practices, and to take a creative approach to the development of new businesses and the infrastructure that supports them.
ICCE believes that entrepreneurship is the creation of social, aesthetic or financial value, and that when entrepreneurial activity is strong these three strands are interwoven.
