Sound Diplomacy launches Music Export Pledge
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 19 May 2017
At the CMU Insights’ Export Conference at The Great Escape later today, music market development consultancy Sound Diplomacy will officially launch a new Music Export Pledge. The document is aimed at local governments and councils, highlighting the need for music export initiatives in every country.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the company said: “We want every country in the world to have a thriving, active music export initiative. It doesn’t matter how it is set up. It matters how its functions impact the artists it serves. Talent is everywhere, and great talent deserves the best support”.
“Only some countries and regions have music export initiatives; those that do are very lucky, because the business leaders running them are providing opportunities for artists across the sector, every day”, they continued. “So let’s learn from each other, work together and make music export an integral aspect of national, regional and local cultural policy”.
