MDA - What Do We Do?

Creative Enterprise Development

MDA (Music Development Agency) is a not-for-profit organisation which aims to enhance and improve the creative economy and music practice across merseyside and throughout the North West region

.  Funded in 1996, MDA has developed over the years and now provides a number of services including enterprise development in the creative industries through to supporting music-making opportunities for young people.

MDA currently operates the following services:

CREATIVEBIAS

Creativebias has two main programmes supporting creative enterprise development:

• a business start up programme offering support for people starting up new businesses, and,

• a business growth programme supporting growth of existing businesses.

Both programmes also include a "young enterprise" element, centred on providing information about how the industry works, mentoring, and showcasing exceptional talent, and BitBiz providing a specialist IT suite and professional development training.

MZONE

Mzone is the Merseyside Youth Music action zone. This programme currently focuses on increasing participation in music making by young people from disadvantaged groups and communities, and providing training & CPD for music workshop leaders. The programme projects are delivered either by MDA, or by a consortium of supplier organisations.
