TWO STEP SOLUTION

TO AN INDUSTRY

CRUSHING

PROBLEM.

Noods Levels has launched for music businesses in Bristol to participate in the Two-Step Programme. This initiative is designed to help local music businesses grow by providing them with a two-part support system:
  1. Business Accelerator: A five-part training programme delivered by Upstarter that will help you address core business challenges.
  2. Creative Placement: An early-career creative will be seconded into your business for one day a week over a three-month period, providing additional capacity and insights.
In partnership with Tarek Virani and University West of England, we are also running a research programme to explore the challenges faced by businesses in the music sector in Bristol. This research will help inform future support programmes and highlight ways to overcome the barriers to growth.
This has been made possible through West Of England Combined Authority and Orbit Fund.
“The creative economy is likely to be a key driver of economic growth over the long term..

…Extrapolating from earlier trends suggests that the creative economy could grow 40% by 2030, adding more than 8 million additional jobs, in the 9 economies studied.”
