UK Young Music Entrepreneur Award 08

Clare Edwards is the UK Young Music Entrepreneur 2008.

Clare, with runners-up Stephen Godfroy and Adam Goodyer, took part in a tour of the Indian music industry in mid November 2008. Over two weeks they visited Bangalore and Mumbai, and met their peers and senior industry figures. You can read Clare's blog here.

Their visit was informed by new research . This research and a series of filmed interviews with Indian music entrepreneurs will shortly be available through this website. By registering as a music entrepreneur you will be told when it is available.

In early 2009 we'll be hosting information events, where you can hear more about the tour and the insights that the finalists have returned with.
