The UNIFIED Grant is a yearly initiative which is open to anyone who positively impacts the local music industry, from musicians, photographers, designers and documentary film-makers to developers, tech founders and journalists. The aim is to help foster new business ideas and empower founders to sustainably propel their projects forward.

CEO of UNIFIED Music Group and founder of The UNIFIED Grant Jaddan Comerford says it was both inspiring and humbling to receive so many worthy submissions.

“The fact that there are so many innovators, thinkers, creators, entrepreneurs and performers out there bursting with ideas, is a good problem to have – it means the music industry is in good hands.”

“It also shows how much the music industry needs to come together to support the next generation. We need ensure the culture in the wider industry continues to improve so we can collect and foster the best talent and ideas out there.”
