Creative in Entrepreneurship
When I think of creativity in entrepreneurship, the first example that comes to mind is Walt Disney. Not only was Walt Disney an amazingly successful entrepreneur, but he was also amazingly creative always creating cartoons and animations. From there, Walt Disney as a creative entrepreneur began Walt Disney Animation Studios as well as opening both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. Walt Disney being a creative person is what led him to be such a successful entrepreneur, once again proving how creativity and entrepreneurship go hand in hand. It all began when Walt Disney arrived in California in 1923 with a cartoon known as "Alice's Wonderland" which was then purchased by a distributor, marking the beginning of the Disney company ( https://d23.com/disney-history/). Shortly after, Walt worked with animators to create Mickey Mouse and then sold products with Mickey on them, beginning the idea of selling merchandise for profit. Walt Disney then began creating motion pictures and television programs but he decided to keep going and opened his first amusement park known as Disneyland on July 17, 1955 with Walt Disney World opening on October 1, 1971 (https://d23.com/disney-history/). Walt Disney started with a creative idea and kept pushing himself to succeed and go beyond what had done before which is why I think he is a prime example of creativity combined with an extremely successful entrepreneur.
“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”
– Walt Disney
