Who is an Artpreneur?
• An ‘Artpreneur’, in simple terms, is an artist and an entrepreneur put together.

• The person would ideally understand the need for a balance between artistic skills as well as the business acumen to be able to successfully establish themselves independently.
What does an Artpreneur do?
An Artpreneur defies the general myth, that artists are inefficient and incapable of branding themselves or succeed in a business and that businessmen have a monotonous approach to life and lack creativity.
An Artpreneur can find the perfect balance of being a Thinker, Creator as well as the Entrepreneur and understand how to brand oneself accordingly.
