Sponsorship of the music industry means DCMS works closely with Government partners and the independent music sector to ensure its interests are safeguarded and independent music continues to thrive.
Through the Creative Economy Programme (CEP), we continue to tackle the main issues which impact on the music industry.
Last year DCMS published the results of research into access to business support and investment finance. The Music Exports Group, on which the independent music sector is represented, is developing export strategies for the industry’s priority markets.
