International work

The UK is the third biggest market for music in the world – only the US & Japanese markets are larger. 

In addition, the UK consistently delivers acts that break across international territories and sell in markets right across the world. 

The BPI has a central role in promoting British music abroad with participation in a number of events and international initiatives. BPI International work includes: 

Networking events and introduction services to key international business contacts and media partners.

Specific trade missions to key markets (the US & Japan) designed to assist member labels to develop their business and source new opportunities.

Company training and mentoring on international issues. 

Structural and organizational assistance for foreign business events and trips (achieved through the BPI being an accredited UK Trade & Investment sponsor). 

A presence at and partnership with key international trade fairs and events such as Midem (France), Popkomm (Germany), SXSW (US) and Canadian Music Week.
