AIM Connected is AIM's flagship annual conference, uniting the themes of business, tech and people within one packed day of programming.

AIM Connected reshapes the format of music business conference, presenting the latest innovations and information in an entirely panel-less format. Held at London-based, multi-arts venue Kings Place, the event will feature a series of quick-fire ‘Strong Opinions’, plus case-studies from independent success stories, workshops and speed networking sessions with the UK’s leading music business experts.

‘Strong Opinions’ will deliver some of the most cutting-edge hot takes from leading industry experts in a quick fire, Ted Talk-style, 15-minute format, with Q&As.

Following the success of case studies at the first AIM Connected, which included a popular deep dive into breaking the top 10 with IDLES from Partisan Records, the format returns this year with blow-by-blow accounts on how some of the foremost independent success stories were achieved this year. Manchester-based label Scruff of the Neck, who picked up Best Small Label at this year’s AIM Awards, are the first case study to be announced this year.

One-on-one speed networking sessions take place throughout the event with experts from across the industry.

Some of the world’s leading music service companies deliver interactive workshops, giving you a chance to meet key contacts, and empower and grow your business. Bandcamp, Leaf Grow and PPL are already confirmed to hold workshop sessions, with many more to come.
