How does the eligible activity window work?
OMIF - Music Industry Development
Since the Music Industry Initiatives stream has a “rolling deadline”, applications may be submitted from program launch until October 29, 2026 by 5:00 PM ET. Activities must take place within a (maximum) 12-month window ending no later than December 31, 2027. Spending may commence once an application has been submitted, provided a valid certificate of insurance is in place.
Note: Applicants that choose to commence spending prior to funding approval do so at their own risk.
For activities that are event-based (e.g. showcases, conferences, public-facing training programs) applications must be submitted a minimum of eight weeks in advance of the event.
