Speakers include representatives from the F-List Directory of Female+ Musicians, producer, tutor and artist Art School Girlfriend, Tony Nwachukwu from All Change Arts and more.
Commenting, James Rees said: "We're delighted to be hosting our inaugural Equalise Music Production Conference. Our cohort of students on our music production programmes has grown significantly in recent years and almost all of our undergraduate courses focused on music creation have some production focus."
With this side of the industry continuing to evolve and offering emerging talent numerous opportunities, we're looking forward to gathering some of the leading academics and practitioners in this space to come together to discuss many of the latest ideas and issues defining this sector."
Mel Uye-Parker, Programme Leader MA Creative Music Production, said:
Equalise, ICMP's first production conference, is an excellent way for industry professionals, producers, artists, academics, and enthusiasts to come together to learn more about inclusive music production education."
