Entrepreneurial Legacies of Notting Hill Masquerade BandsNicole Ferdinand
The Notting Hill Carnival originated as a celebration of Trinidadian culture but has since expanded internationally. Over time, various organizations have guided its development in response to shifting priorities around commercialization, accountability, and cultural representation. The Carnival Arts Committee pursued a more commercial focus in the 1980s, enrolling non-Caribbean masquerade makers to grow the festival to over 1 million attendees. However, some bands later rejected this commercial direction and ousted the Committee's leader, negatively impacting future funding and sponsorship opportunities.

Applying Project Management to the Cultural and Creative Industries: A tool ...Global Expert Systems Inc.
Breaking the cycle of underdevelopment has been the major preoccupation for governments and populations in the developing world over the last one hundred years. With developmental models currently under revision, developing countries have been advised to look for other possible alternatives of sustainable development.
The one area that is gaining significant attention is that of the Cultural and Creative Industries. In recent years, the UN and its specialized agencies have been spelling the good fortune of these industries. However, there is very scant literature to show how best to manage these industries. This paper therefore proposes to show how Project Management as a tool can be used to take these industries to a desirable level to produce tangible results for developing countries.
In addition to standard research based on the existing literature and debates, the Case Study methodology will be used to show at least how one country is making steps and strides with the application of Project Management. It must be noted however, that the paper will be heavily focused on project management methodologies and recommendations for action.
There are three approaches that come to mind for immediate application: the use of the Logical Framework Approach for Project and Program Planning; standardizing project management methodologies across the infrastructure of the cultural and creative industries; and a model for creating a centralized Cultural Project Management Office (CPMO).

This document discusses plans to hold a recurring event featuring international and local musical talent. It will utilize various partners to promote the event, source talent, and provide engagement opportunities. The goal is to build a fan base and leverage relationships to develop emerging artists.

Events provide opportunities for individuals and communities to connect and celebrate important milestones. Businesses use events to engage stakeholders through marketing. For communities, events can unite by reinforcing shared identities, but also risk diminishing local culture if overly commercialized. When planned carefully, events have potential to economically develop cities by improving infrastructure and attracting visitors while preserving local character.

5. Resource-Based View
• View organizations as collections
of resources that are coordinated
to derive returns or generate
value for customers (Barney
1991)
• Distinctive resources are
particularly critical to a firm‟s
success:
– Property Resources
– Discrete Knowledge Resources
– Systematic Knowledge Resources
6. Modes of Internationalization
• Six possible forms of international
market activity (Hill 1999):
– Exporting
– Licensing
– Foreign joint venture
– Foreign direct investment in
production sites
– Turnkey projects
– Franchising
7. Internationalization Paths
Outward internationalization – To perform activities in
foreign markets (Johanson & Vahlne, 1977)
Inward internationalization - Resources are brought from
foreign markets or activities are performed by foreign
providers in the home country (Fletcher, 2001)
8. How do festivals become
internationalized?
Q1. How are festivals adapted in the
process of internationalization?
Q2. What international business
activities do festival organisations
participate in?
Q3. What are the benefits for the
country of origin of festival
internationalization?

Notting Hill Carnival can be described as a single unit of analysis and its four
cultural arenas as nested or embedded units within it (Swanborn, 2010).

21. Discussion
• Notting Hill Carnival is a festival which is served by a complex,
interlinked web of actor networks and resource interactions which
enables multiple modes and directions of international business activity
• Its integration of international production and consumption activities has
more in common with previous work on cultural clusters (Mommaas
2004) and interactive networks, or cultural production systems (Pratt
2008) rather than most festival tourism research which focuses on
consumer behaviour with a fixed festival environment
• The Notting Hill Carnival‟s cultural entrepreneurs rather than
incompetent (Burr 2006) have been skillful actors in their negotiations
with state bodies and sponsors and have been incredibly innovative with
their use of resources
• Rather than being thieves of the Trinidadian culture (Green 2007) these
cultural entrepreneurs have provided Trinidadian artists and designers
with export opportunities
22. Conclusions
• Reframing the Notting Hill Carnival as an experience
production system (Ferdinand and Williams, 2012) can
create opportunities for additional resources and new actors
to contribute to the carnival (e.g. multi-national firms,
television networks, other Caribbean Carnival organizations)
• Festivals like the Notting Hill Carnival present a unique
opportunity for cultural entrepreneurs to learn a complex
range of business skills, with minimal investment making
them an attractive investment for developing countries or
segments of the community with limited resources
• Festival organizations need to be wary of outsiders (e.g.
funding agencies and sponsors) framing their festivals in
ways which do not benefit the festival community
