Connecting startups with investors & clients

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.

Athens Music Week

7-10 May 2025

The full Athens Music Week 2025 programme is now live.

It’s been a pleasure contributing to the AMW25 programming team, helping shape this year’s edition around the questions shaping today’s music landscape.

We’ve focused on:

How are humans and technology interacting in creative work?
As tech reshapes live music, can the energy of real shows stay central?
What do emerging artists need to get started and keep going?
What toll does creative pressure take, and how are artists and founders learning to manage it?
What makes an electronic music scene thrive, and can Athens define its own nightlife identity?
Where does music meet social responsibility, activism and environmental awareness?
How can we unblock creativity, make the most of limited resources and build careers on our terms?
Over four nights, more than 40 artists will perform across Kerameikos — with standout sets from Greece and beyond.

A global voice for the electronic music industry, representing our community, culture and commerce.

How are you doing?

Mental Health First Aider

I’ve completed my Mental Health First Aid training with Music Support, a charity dedicated to supporting those in the music industry facing mental health and addiction challenges.

The course was practical, grounded, and relevant. It helped me recognise the signs, ask the right questions, and respond in a meaningful way.

In our industry, people often carry on under pressure without showing it. I now feel better prepared to offer support when it matters most.
