INTRODUCINGSX
Social experience (SX) is the vital ingredient that many UK regions have so far missed in their Local Industrial Strategies
​
To successfully attract the tech sector regions must pay more attention to building virbrant social and evening economies that 18-34 year old tech sector employees seek
​
The toolkit provided by Government to regions to assist in the writing of their Local Industrial Strategies misses this critical link. So we've teamed up with Ben Hawes to write a White Paper for UK regions
MUSIC VALUATION FORMULA
The full value of music to society
We have spent many years examining all the ways in which music delivers value to society. This work has identified a multitude of variables that represent health impacts and economic returns. From cradle to grave, birth to death (from pre-birth in the womb actually), hire to retire. The ways in which music can add value to the public and private sector and society as a whole is exceptional but as yet remains to be effectively tapped and valued.
​
Click here to see the full formulaic breakdown and for more detail regarding why we should be measuring the full value of music in society in order to extract the maximum potential from this incredible asset. This formula continues to be a work in progress as we gradually find ways to improve measurement of variables.

MUSIC IS THE NEW GASTRONOMY
White Paper for the United Nations World Trade Organisation
Don't underestimate the amount of business that music can deliver to your destination. Cities, regions and towns around the world are starting to tap into this under-recognised opportunity.
​
We co-wrote this White Paper with Sound Diplomacy and ProColombia for the United Nations World Tourism Organisation. It was launched at the World Travel Market in London in November 2018. It provides guidance and case studies to help destinations develop their own music tourism strategy to boost economic growth.

MUSIC IN SOCIETY
An inquiry conducted at the House of Lords
Many excellent committees, commissions and All Party Parliamentary Groups have been examining various music related topics over recent years.
​
We created this inquiry to bring all of that intelligence together into one joined up conversation. To examine how policies and infrastructure can be better organised in order for society to extract the full value from music as an asset.
​
The evidence meetings held at the House of Lords will hear from expert witnesses in the following strands:
​
-
The role of music in developing the future workforce
-
The role of music in improving public health
-
The role of music in coping with the ageing population
-
The role of music in driving economic growth
