Music Moves Europe dialogue with the music sector

The structured dialogue with the music sector consists of 10 sessions hosted at music conferences across Europe between 2022 and 2026, to strengthen the exchange on EU related matters (policies impacting the music, funding opportunities, etc.) within the music sector and with its professionals. A consortium of well-established music conferences implements the dialogue sessions.
