You already have a project, which has been
operating for one or two years, but even
though it has a lot of potential it is struggling to
progress to the next level.We will help you
identify the main areas of your project where
you require further support and focus on
putting you on the strongest path to success.

sector.This includes live, recording, publishing, management but also
service providers with a focus on the business side of the industry.

the music industry ecosystem, and that it is innovative in its approach.
We have supported projects fostering social change, enhancing technical
development or building bridges between the key players of the
