Unplugged Zimbabwe - one of the country’s largest event promoters have partnered with digital agency and label services company Point Black Africa on The Music Industry Incubator.
The Music Industry Incubator project consists of a series of online workshops open to all artists. The workshops are currently being held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings on Twitter Spaces. The workshops will run until September 2022.
The next phase of the project will see 20 artists being chosen to take part in 1 on 1 mentorship sessions with accomplished industry professionals. All artists will also gain free access to resources and documents that will help increase their knowledge and ability to increase their revenue as an artist.
“The project was designed to address the following issues that we come across regularly in our organisations. Upon completion we would like The Music Industry Incubator to address the following;
Educate Artists on the entertainment and arts industries in sub-Saharan Africa
Provide artists with a comprehensive resource of free information that they can easily use to increase their earning potential
Provide solutions to artists who are suffering from a drastic loss in revenue due to the Covid-19 pandemic
Provide artists with mentoring from industry professionals that will allow them to increase their network.” Said the organisers in a joint statement.
To date, the project has already delivered workshops with speakers such as Mzwandile Sibanda, Mr Kamera, Mutsai Musa, Carol Nkosi, Munya Chanetsa and RayDizz with more discussions to follow from both African and American Music Business Professionals.
Their website also hosts a number of free downloadable resources and explainers of why every artist should have them. Free resources include SPlit Sheets, Notification of Works templates, metadata tools and legal agreements.
