- Description
- The Hunter region remains one of the key economic hubs in Australia, despite a declining manufacturing sector. In this paper the authors report on a study of the creative industries in the Hunter and the growth of occupations in the creative services sector. Newcastle and Lake Macquarie within the region are two important centres of this growth. Older entrepreneurs, who dominate entrepreneurship in Australia, move to the Hunter because it represents sea change and tree change lifestyles. The paper provides an overview of the region and the importance of entrepreneurship to creative industries growth.
