The Africanist panel focused on the concept of the cultural entrepreneur in Africa. Based on theoretical considerations and case studies from Benin, Mali, Sierra Leone and Senegal, taking into account both aspects if success as well as failure, panelists discussed the recent rise of importance of entrepreneurship in Sub-Saharan Africa also in new spheres such as culture, education, media and religion; and discussed the usefulness of a wider, interculturally pertinent notion of entrepreneurship.
