Survey Time! Graphic: UK Music
The organisation is asking artists, composers, writers and producers to fill in their 2019 survey – allowing them to analyse trends and document day-to-day conditions in the UK music business.
The document is a key asset to industry professionals, politicians, policymakers, journalists and other stakeholders.
Their last report revealed that the UK music industry contributed £4.5bn to the UK economy and sustained over 145,000 jobs.
The data gathered from this survey will be used to:
- Shape industrial strategy for the creative industries, and fight against the threats to grassroots music – like the closure of some of the country’s cherished music venues.
- Make the case for the music industry to the Government and politicians.
- Fight to protect the value of copyright and intellectual property and get a fair deal for everyone from creators to investors.
But most of all it will mean the value of your work as a music industry professional will be recognised and acknowledged.
The deadline for completion has now been extended to Friday 7 June.
