Looking Back, Moving Forward
When CulEnt launched back in 2014, it began as a question: What happens when culture is treated not as a sector, but as a system of value creation? This came out of the investigation on the way traditional cultural production and the established economy combine, how they cooperate and affect one another.
Since then, CulEnt has become a space for critical reflection and creative strategy — connecting cultural practice with entrepreneurship, public value, and sustainable design. Over more than 170 posts, I looked at essays, case studies, and field reflections, and explored how culture can function as infrastructure: a civic and economic backbone for innovation.
A Community of Thinkers and Doers
CulEnt has never been just a publication; it’s a conversation.
Together with cultural practitioners, policymakers, and creative entrepreneurs, we’ve unpacked how creativity fuels civic innovation and how design thinking can strengthen community ecosystems.
We’ve highlighted projects that blend art, technology, and social change — and shared insights from European initiatives redefining creative value.
The Legacy: Culture as Capacity
If one idea captures what we’ve built together, it’s this: culture is capacity.
Culture trains us to adapt, connect, and imagine — precisely the skills that future systems depend on.
As I prepare for what’s next, I carry this principle forward into a broader field of exploration: how organizations can design systems that thrive under pressure, not despite it.
This is not a goodbye — it’s a transition. The conversations that began here will continue in a new form: more operational, more adaptive, and more systemic.
Stay tuned — I’ll be unveiling what comes next soon.
