The London Development Agency and the Association Of Independent Music have announced a new service to offer artists, indie labels and other indie music companies with free and subsidised support and advice for their digital ventures. The LDA will put in £650,000 to fund the support service, which will be coordinated by AIM.
AIM's GM Remi Harris, who has co-developed the new programme, told CMU: "It was clear from our research that there is huge untapped potential in the exploitation of digital technologies for London's small music companies. I hope that this service is able to have a wide-reach into all aspects of the music industry in London, and at all levels of expertise. It's also very exciting for AIM be given the opportunity to bring this funding into the music industry".
