Thank you to everyone who joined us, contributed, and supported the day. And special thanks to our sponsors, ICE, @prsformusic.bsky.social, The MLC and Musixmatch - for helping make the Summit possible.

Across eight hours, we delivered 16 panel discussions with 37 speakers, exploring the practicalities of forging a successful career in music. We’re now turning these conversations into a resource to support our members' creative and professional journeys.

This marked the launch of the Empower part of The Ivors Academy, complementing our campaigning and lobbying work under Protect, and the awards that Celebrate.

Last week, we hosted the inaugural Ivors Academy Summit, our new flagship event bringing together hundreds of songwriters, composers and industry professionals for a day of empowering conversations and essential advice on the business of making music.

Yesterday, Adam, Larry, The Edge and Bono were inducted into The Fellowship of The Ivors Academy 🏆
