Origin of the Orange Economy
The Orange Economy is the creative economy in Colombia. It merges different creative sectors to create products of artistic or cultural significance.
The Orange Economy came to be when the Colombian government realized the importance of creativity for the country. As a result, they created more projects and initiatives to influence people to use their creativity.
In addition, the Colombian Bank Bancoldex wanted to fund the expansion of creativity because of its importance. Bancoldex then created ‘Orange Bonds’.
Orange Bonds were created to give money to those who were trying to get into the Orange Economy and are very valuable.
They are so valuable that on Auction Day, more than 300 investors were bidding on more than $120 million worth of bonds!
