SoundBytes: Funding & Support Edition
Welcome to SoundBytes: Funding & Support Edition - MTUK's practical, no-nonsense virtual session where real members share real experiences of navigating the maze of grants, funding, and business support.
20 music tech founders and a few relevant guest speakers will take the mic for 3 minutes each to cut through the noise and share exactly what worked (and what didn't) when securing support for their ventures.
We'll cover a broad range: grant funding, startup and business loans, tax incentives, accelerator and incubator programmes, innovation funding, export and international growth support, cashflow and working capital, partnership funding, invoice finance, and more. We welcome a wide range of perspectives – both positive and negative!
Whether you're gearing up for your first application or looking to unlock the next level of funding, this session will arm you with insider knowledge from those who've been there, done that.

20 fast-paced stories – 3 minutes each, straight-talking insights. A randomly allocated speaker order will be announced in advance and we'll keep tight to time.
