European Programmes Activities ETEP
  The European Talents Exchange Programme (ETEP)

ETEP is an initiative of the Noorderslag Foundation in collaboration with the European Music Platform and received funding as a pilot project from the European Union during 2005-2006.
 
 
 
ETEP’s goal is to stimulate the circulation of European Artists within Europe by performing at selected ETEP festivals throughout Europe. The actual selection is done at Eurosonic Weekend by the ETEP festivals themselves. The artists are given the opportunity to perform at the major European ETEP festivals with the support of (EBU) radio and (print) Media. This guarantees maximum exposure and offers a perfect opportunity for the management and the recording industry to establish and promote their artists throughout Europe.
 
 
As a double festival and business seminar in one weekend, The Eurosonic weekend serves as the European Platform for the European live music industry, music Management, European radio professionals and (online) Media.
