Recap: Mapping the Creative Sector Workshop

Today, KUMISA was honoured to be invited as a speaker at the Mapping the Creative Sector workshop, where our Project Coordinator, Mr Msane, shared insights on the Music Business and the critical role it plays in the creative economy.

The session highlighted the importance of understanding Copyright and Intellectual Property (IP), empowering creatives to protect their work, claim their rights as well as to build sustainable careers.

Thank you to the organisers and fellow creatives for the engaging discussions and commitment to strengthening the creative sector. Together, we continue to advocate for knowledge, ownership and growth in the music industry.
