BIIBA pitches for promoters
The professional body for the licensed retail sector, the BIIAB, has launched an Award for Music Promoters (AMP), a ‘first step towards enhancing the standard, quality and legacy of promoters and events’.
“I’ve been really impressed with the way the steering committee has taken a rounded approach to the role of a music event organiser,” Dominique Czopor, founder of independent venue/promoter network we:Live, who has been involved with development of the AMP, said. “No stone has been left unturned, and the course will ensure the music promoters of tomorrow are savvy, well-informed and aware of their legal responsibilities.”
“This is exactly what the industry needs”
