The Annual MMF Summit – Sponsored by Sound Royalties

11 August 2025

MMF's Managers Summit 2025 edition promises to be extra special, joining the dots on the changing dynamics of music management - covering value, growth & finance.

We’ll be unveiling special MMF news, including:

– Exclusive research on the economic value of music managers to the wider music industry

– Fresh insights into how to structure your company to make your management business investable

– A new guide to accessing alternative finance for your business and your clients

– Drop-in surgeries with MMF Associate partners including lawyers, new tech, accountants,

The Summit has evolved into a must-attend event for managers of all backgrounds: an affordable day full of learning, expert speakers, and networking.

We are delighted to partner up with Sound Royalties, providers of creator-friendly funding solutions for the music industry, to help deliver this cutting-edge programme.

Previous Summits have sold out weeks in advance – so please, please, book your ticket early. 

MMF members can buy these for the discounted price of just £55 (plus VAT and fees) here by using the code MEMSUM25 – that’s over 70% off, including lunch and refreshments.

Tying this all together, at the MMF Annual General Meeting (AGM), which immediately follows the Summit, the team will present some exciting changes to our membership structure, including a new ‘Pro Tier’ and full details of our new Manager Certification initiative.

These will mark the most significant developments to the organisation in years, and ensure we can deliver an enhanced and tailored service to all our members.

The AGM is due to start at 5pm. Entry is free for all manager members, however, you must register for a complimentary ticket in advance – sorry, no-walk up on the day!
