The Ultimate Seminar flagship event returns to Manchester’s Band on the Wall for its third consecutive year on Saturday 21st September. Led by industry experts from both Manchester and London, Ultimate Seminar provides an opportunity to meet and work with a creative cohort and support the next generation of entrepreneurs and creatives.

The event targets unsigned artists and bands from all musical genres looking to enter the creative industries. It provides a platform for education, information, and talent sharing with credible audiences. This event is exclusively partnered with Warner Music UK, who are also offering a paid internship opportunity with one participant working at NQ 4 days a week and once a month at the Warner Music’s office in London - more details to follow soon.

Confirmed to panel this year are Femi Bello (Creative Consultant, Warner Records), Jack Kong (Musician/Producer), Mark Terry (Head of Europe, Africa & India at BeatBread), Paul Samuels (VP A&R, Atlantic Records), Sam Spencer (Marketing Director, Atlantic Records UK) and many more to be announced.

Cre8ing Vision have also today announced brand new Ultimate Studio Sessions to take place in London and Manchester from September 2024 to March 2025. The sessions will support a diverse array of songwriters, producers, and artists and are designed to amplify individual creativity, and foster a sense of confidence among participants, allowing them to forge valuable connections and experiences with their peers. Funded by The Talent Development Network and supported by PPL, bringing together organisations working at the frontline of talent development, strengthening the music ecosystem.

This unique opportunity aims to discover new talent from across the UK, and allows participants to engage in a comprehensive creative project, covering every aspect from inception to completion. Upon finishing the programme, the selected tracks will be signed off, and a visual video will be produced to promote the tracks and the initiative. The tracks that receive the best responses will be highlighted and marketed across music media and social platforms.

Speaking about the new project, Cre8ing Vision says “Building unique opportunities that engage and serve the next generation of young creatives is at the heart of everything we do at Cre8ing Vision. We are excited to get started on The Ultimate Studio Sessions. We would like to thank the PRS foundation and its Talent Development fund for awarding The Ultimate Studio Sessions - this will help open doors to an entire new generation of writers, artists and producers and we are ecstatic to see what unfolds.”

The Ultimate Seminar event will bring together respected executives who will host insightful forward-thinking conversations on the future of the music industry. The Ultimate Seminar has become an essential annual event for those wanting to pursue careers in every area of the music industry. The sessions will enable attendees to learn valuable business skills and benefit from networking opportunities, bridging the gap between the classroom and the boardroom.

Ahead of the event, Cre8ing Vision & Warner Music UK will be hosting the NQ House Takeover on Friday 20th September in their Manchester offices, holding an array of versatile workshops including songwriting, production, music ciphers, marketing and more.

The Ultimate Seminar Manchester will take place on Saturday 21st September, and consist of industry panels.
