The sphere of arts and culture has been going through a process of economic reevaluation
during the last decades. Parallel to the rise of a creative economy discourse,
which both in its political and scientific forms has highlighted the economic significance
of culture and arts, entrepreneurship has become a feature in the cultural policy of many
countries. In this paper, we compare how entrepreneurship is established and used as a
concept in cultural policy discourses in two Nordic countries, Norway and Finland.
Through analyzing policy plans and documents, we discuss what is seen as positive
cultural or artistic activity in the framework of entrepreneurship, and we identify the
eligible cultural subjects of this discourse.
