Our recent Industry Day was a huge success - an inspiring and insightful event focused on marketing and releasing your own music. The day brought together professionals from across the music industry to share real, practical advice with our young artists. 

A standout moment came from artist LYVIA, whose session on social media strategy offered valuable, up-to-date insight into how to share content effectively online. She discussed what works best on different platforms, how algorithms respond to various types of content, and how artists can use these tools to build their audience and grow their brand. 

The day also included a media training session with radio host Jackie P, a release campaign workshop led by Nina Smith, and a lively panel discussion featuring Jah Digga, Jason Hart, Jackie P, Ganji, and LYVIA. To finish the day, participants had the opportunity to take part in 1-to-1 creative sessions with Tom Shawcroft and filmmaker Ganji Visuals, receiving personalised feedback and guidance. 

Overall, the event was filled with energy, learning, and connection - a real celebration of creativity and development for our young musicians.
