In order to make sure that musicians are not left out of the music/tech
debate, we have created artist scholarships for this event. This way,
many of the audience participants will be those who the biggest stake
in the policy debate – musicians themselves.
Thanks to some generous contributions from foundations, technology companies,
sponsors, musician advocacy groups and lawfirms, 300 musicians are able
to attend our Fourth Annual Policy Summit for free. Note that the
scholarship only waives your registration fees. FMC cannot cover travel
or lodging expenses.
If you're interested in applying for a scholarship, click
here to start the process. where you will fill out a web form and
give us a paragraph or two describing your musician background and explaining
why you're interested in receiving a scholarship.
After you hit "submit", your info will be sent to us (you'll
get a copy in your inbox as well), where it will be reviewed by Sara Castillo,
our musician scholarship coordinator. Then she will promptly inform you
via email about the status of your application.
The online scholarship application process will close Saturday, May
1 at 6:00 PM and we do not accept walk-up applications at the event itself.
Help us help more musicians!
You can help us to have as diverse and enthusiastic audience as possible
by letting other musicians, label mates, and songwriters know about the
Policy Summit and the scholarship opportunities.
