In November/December 2023, Creation Africa Ghana (CAG) launched an exciting Call for Proposals, inviting aspiring entrepreneurs in Ghana's Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) to submit their innovative projects. This opportunity offers the chance to receive mentorship, training, and valuable resources through an 8-month incubation program facilitated by Impact Hub Accra (IHA).

To broaden the reach of the Call for Proposals and encourage more creative entrepreneurs to participate, we extended the deadline and specifically called out to female creatives. CAG and IHA are committed to fostering the growth and promoting gender balance within Ghana's Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs).

Selected participants will delve into comprehensive capacity-building sessions and gain access to collaborative opportunities within a dedicated workspace at Ako Adjei Park, part of an innovative startup campus powered by IHA.

The program boasts a wealth of benefits for participants, including:

• Business Training: Delivered by industry experts specializing in the Cultural and Creative Industries.

• Personalized Expert Support: Receive tailored guidance from professionals in the Cultural and Creative Industries and the business sector.

• Networking Opportunities: Connect with Impact Hub Accra's extensive national and international network, fostering strategic connections for partnership development.

• Showcase to Investors: Present projects to investors, strategic partners, and the public, resulting in heightened exposure and awareness on both national and international stages.

• Funding Opportunities: Top participants who stand out will be selected to receive funding of up to €30,000 to further fuel their creative ventures.
