UK music business network MusicTank has revealed first details of Easy Money? The Convention, a one-day event to provide insight into the funding available for music projects and offer essential advice on finance success from those that have achieved it.Aimed at musicians, entrepreneurs, micro-businesses & SMEs, the event will see London’s Somerset House host a hotbed of workshops, presentations, Q & A sessions and a networking marketplace to provide delegates with the information, tools and contacts necessary to get their projects off the ground.It is MusicTank’s first salvo towards helping plug the funding gap that has long bedeviled the sector.
