Box Hill Institute and City Of Melbourne have joined forces to present a new music mentoring program, Music Industry Mentoring Edge (MIME).
The program is described as the first of its kind and is designed "to support career progression, knowledge and connections for emerging to mid-level career music industry professionals".
“This first of its kind program is a fantastic opportunity to support emerging music industry professionals with mentoring and potential financial support while developing their careers,” said Ben Wiesner, Head of Music at Box Hill Institute.
“Melbourne’s diverse music scene is world-renowned,” added Councillor Rohan Leppert.
“It’s important that we continue to foster the growth of our local music industry and entrepreneurs. Through the City of Melbourne Music Plan, our investment in MIME will open a new set of opportunities for local music businesses to grow and make their mark on Australia and the world."
Olympia, Birdz, Peter Luscombe, Ariel Blum, Merida Sussex and Wenona Lok have all been confirmed as speakers for the program.
