British Music Invades India

A UK music industry trade mission to India is set to take place from 2nd – 8th December 2015, providing an open door for independent record labels to explore business opportunities in the world’s seventh largest economy. UK Trade & Investment (UKTI), in partnership with The Association of Independent Music (AIM) and BPI (British Phonographic Industry), is organising the music mission to India, which will take place in Mumbai, for a second consecutive year.
The music industry is growing in India, a country that is increasingly consuming international music and developing its association with the international music business.

The week-long mission will act as a catalyst for collaboration, exploration and expansion of the British music industry in India. It will include a programme of education, networking, B2B meetings, conferences, showcases, visit to a Festival and other music related activities.

UKTI’s “GREAT” campaign was launched in 2011 to “get the world thinking and feeling differently about Britain, repositioning us as a vibrant, inspiring and innovative nation to visit and do business with”. This is a “Music is GREAT” India Music Mission with industry partners, AIM and BPI.

Artists, managers, promoters, record labels, digital distribution companies, festival bookers/directors/organisers and promoters, covering all genres of music are being invited to participate and the organisers will be tailoring certain aspects of the programme to suit all delegates.

Mission registration is just £150.00 per delegate and interested parties should note that funding may be available through UKTI, details of which can be obtained through phil.patterson@uktispecialist.com
