New educational strand planned for In The City

By | Published on Wednesday 1 September 2010

Organisers of In The City have announced a brand new strand to the convention this year called The Hive, which will include a stack of educational events aimed at those at the start of their music or music business careers. Some of the events will be organised by this thing called CMU, and we don’t mean Carnegie Mellon University, so that’s exciting.

In addition to our stuff, the Musicians’ Union will provide a guide to the DIY approach, there’ll be a Music Managers Panel, producers masterclass and sessions on music publishing, journalism, networking and all things digital.

ITC Director Yvette Livesey told CMU: “In The City has always adopted the twin tenets of education and inspiration and we have decided this year to put in a place a bespoke educational programme tailored to the specific needs of young people looking to learn about and get into the music industry. The In The City Hive will bring together a range of respected and successful industry professionals to inspire delegates and give them the tools to start their journey into the industry”. 

This year’s In The City runs from 13-15 Oct, more at www.inthecity.co.uk.
