UPCOMING 2025 EVENTS
Music Industry | intern discovery sessions.
When: Thursday 19th June 2025 (18:30 – 20:30)
Venue: Central London
Designed for: Entry level professionals looking to start a career in the music industry.
We speak to so many people trying to get started in music. At the same time, we speak to hiring managers and companies struggling to find great interns.
Our intern discovery sessions are designed to bridge that gap. If you're looking to take your first step into the music industry, this is a chance to hear from people who work in it, ask honest questions, and get practical advice.
It’s not a job interview, just a relaxed, informative session to help you figure out your next steps.

Has DEI died, or does it need to be reimagined?
When: 11th March 2025
Format: An exclusive, facilitated in-person discussion led by Arit Eminue.
DEI is under fire. Driven by shifts in political leadership, and news coverage of global businesses that have publicly scaled back their diversity initiatives. Even in the UK, where inclusion continues to be championed, employees engage with these global headlines and, consciously or unconsciously, can bring scepticism into their workplaces.
