Plugged In Yorkshire - The Future of Artist Development

This free event, organised by Plugged In Yorkshire the network for the region’s music businesses, looks at how artists can be developed and supported in the future given current pressures on the industry to adapt to new business models.

Traditionally large labels have been the ones who nurture talent and have recouped their investment through record sales. If this potential is lost then how are artists to be developed? With perspectives from artists, labels, publishers and management this interactive discussion looks at how best to prepare artists for commercial success, new deals, new partnerships and opportunities for small businesses in this sector.

Attend this session to take part in a unique networking session and hear about how small music businesses can create fresh opportunities in the region.
