Creative Entrepreneurs

As the creative/innovation economy develops we're learning to differentiate, value, and rank creative people. The Eskimos have a hundred names for snow because of their attention to it. However, until recently the business world had very few names for creative people. This is beginning to change as the participants in the innovation economy are identified and vie to maximize their compensation.
At the top of the heap may be called Creative Entrepreneurs.
These are designers, artists, and film-makers who take the initiative to lead creative works in new and exciting directions. In film-making it can describe those directors and producers who bring to cinema unique and compelling visions (think Spielberg, Kameron, Kubrick).
As our 'Innovation Economy' evolves, so will our understanding of creative individuals. More businesses will demand the talents of Creative Entrepreneurs (think Steve Jobs, IDEO). These are individuals and businesses that create new business and innovations beyond the expected.
