Résumé

SMEs-Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprises-in the cultural and creative sector traditionally face difficulties in accessing bank financing (The entrepreneurial dimension of the cultural and creative industries. Hogeschool vor de Kunsten Utrecht-HKU, 2010). This weakness in the ability to support their financing structure could not only limit their development but also be particularly problematic in times of crisis, when other financial resources are scarce and when the ability to prove resilient is crucial. This paper investigates the topic of access to bank financing for SMEs in the cultural and creative sector by means of an exploratory study carried out in the region of Burgundy (France) that investigates the perspectives of both banks and entrepreneurs.
