From idea to investment.
Today, I’m speaking at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance (ICMP), where I’ve been invited to share insights with students from the Masters (MA) in Music Business course.
The course focuses on real-world application and innovative approaches to music business education, offering students opportunities to test startup MVPs, participate in masterclasses, and engage with industry professionals.
My talk covers the journey from idea to investment for music startups, addressing common challenges founders face, how to refine ideas into investable concepts, and the importance of proving market demand. I’ll also share practical tips on creating effective pitch decks, building real industry connections, and understanding what investors look for beyond just a good idea.

Music publishing expertise
Music publishing training & workshops
I have delivered numerous workshops, lectures, and talks to audiences worldwide—in person, virtually, and hybrid. People leave my sessions with a genuine understanding of music publishing and, crucially, realistic, actionable next steps to take.
Catalogue management
I manage your catalogue, overseeing all administrative tasks and guiding your team. This includes income tracking and desk audits to assess the current status of your catalogue, registrations, and generated royalties. I ensure optimal royalty collection and promptly address any potential issues.
Consulting for an optimum publishing infrastructure
I help independent publishers to evaluate their options and establish a tailored infrastructure designed to maximise royalty collection and minimise complications. My expertise ensures you ask the right questions and consider all necessary factors.
Startup success services
Music startup success partner
Startups value my guidance because I bring a unique blend of strategic insight and practical experience. I encourage innovation while ensuring that critical business decisions are grounded in reality. Additionally, my extensive network within the music industry opens doors to valuable connections and resources.
Connecting startups with investors & clients
One of the biggest challenges for music startups is securing investment and finding clients, which is crucial for their growth and sustainability; even the greatest startup ideas can’t succeed without adequate funding and client adoption. I specialise in helping music startups navigate these challenges by leveraging my industry network and expertise.
Music Industry Access - Music conference strategy & networking support for startups
I’ve spent my career building global relationships in the music industry and understand how to navigate conferences for real business results. Whether you need help selecting the right events, securing meetings, or making connections that matter, I ensure your time & budget are spent effectively.
Professional development & networking services
Professional network optimisation
My deep and genuine interest in people fuels my networking skills. I don't miss important details and remember connections well, making linking people and opportunities easy. I can share my insights to help others build valuable, long-term connections, too.
Professional mentorship
Stepping back and bouncing ideas off an impartial third party can be exactly what you need to move forward. We begin with a self-assessment to understand your current situation, ideas, projects, and ambitions, setting clear, actionable goals. By navigating both successes and challenges together, I ensure your continuous growth and success. For me, the essence of mentorship lies in this collaborative journey.
Music industry career guidance
Where is best to start with a career in the music industry? How do you find a job? What is the right job for you, anyway? What areas could best suit your strengths and interests, and how can you get your foot in the door? I offer advice and guidance to help you navigate these questions, explore various sectors of the industry, and find the best fit for your skills and aspirations.
Event programme & panel services
Music conference programme curation
Great conferences need strong themes, compelling discussions, and the right mix of speakers. I design music conference programmes that engage, inform, and inspire.
Panel curation
Well-curated panels can transform a conference, creating engagement and delivering profound insights. With years of experience in the music industry and conference ecosystem, I bring a detailed and informed approach to panel discussions. Focusing on current, relevant topics and original perspectives, I use creative thinking, strategic insights, and a strong network to ensure panels are both engaging and enlightening.
Panel moderation
I moderate music conference panels to spark dynamic, inclusive discussions that everyone enjoys, ensuring engaging and beneficial exchanges for the audience and panellists.

20th February 2025 | 3pm-4:30pm UK
I’m excited to speak to students from the MA Music Business Management and BA Music Production, Performance, and Business courses at the University of Westminster. These programmes equip students for diverse and dynamic careers across the music industry, focusing on essential areas like production, performance, and business while fostering collaboration.
I’ll be joined by Doug Barr, CTO and co-founder of Submix and Software & Audio Development Lead at Tazman Audio. Doug is also a patent author for software used by Disney, Game of Thrones, and Marvel. Submix enables real-time, remote collaboration for artists, producers, and engineers by seamlessly integrating voice, audio, and MIDI channels without requiring additional plugins.
Collaboration will be the overarching theme of the session, bridging the innovative technology of Submix with music publishing essentials, such as managing copyrights through split sheets. We’ll explore how these interconnected elements can streamline the creative and business processes, ensuring smoother collaboration and fair outcomes for all stakeholders. We look forward to sharing insights and engaging with the students.
Some words from my past and present clients, mentees, and collaborators.
