We've commissioned research, in partnership with The Hub, into the range of opportunities out there for UK musicians and music businesses overseas. We hope it will prove to be a useful one-stop shop for those wishing to find out more about the key funding schemes and artist and business development programmes, as well as giving a helpful summary of the UK funding bodies and support providers that manage the various related initiatives.
Going International at The Great Escape
The research was discussed at The Great Escape festival in Brighton on 19th May 2016 with a panel, chaired by Phil Patterson (UK Trade & Investment), including Chris Tams (BPI), Paul Bonham (Arts Council England), Vanessa Reed (PRS For Music Foundation), Joel Mills (British Council) and Crispin Parry (British Underground).
