All prospective applicants should carefully read through the various funding guidelines and application procedures for these initiatives and programs in order to have a good understanding of how the various programs and applications work. It is important to know what is required for a valid proposal submission. Incomplete applications may not be considered. There have been some minor changes to the scoring criteria.

Members should also take note of the new “Music Industry Professional” application forms in the Emerging and Export Ready categories. Applicants applying as MIPs must use these forms. The Music Industry Professional grants are for non-artist applications and could include managers, agents and labels.
