Music Industry Voices

Visibility is the first step in creating change. In Music Industry Voices, we come together with professionals from the music industry, listening to their stories about how they started out working in the industry, got to their first jobs, what challenges were faced and which opportunities arose. This way, we are making career paths more visible, disclosing opportunities to those who are starting to work in the industry just now, and inspiring those who are searching a new path in their career. Music Industry Voices is to be understood as an ever-evolving platform, growing with the stories told. Tune in, lean back and listen to us detangling ourselves and our careers on air. *** MIV emerged from the European Music Business Task Force (EMBTF), a Creative EU-funded training programme.
