The BPI is the representative voice for the UK’s record companies and label businesses, and champions British music. It runs The BRIT Awards, is home to the Mercury Prize, co-owns the Official Charts, and administers the BRIT Billion and The BRIT Certified Awards.
“The BPI is thrilled to have entered a longer-term commitment to sponsor the DE&I Initiative of the Year category at the Women in Music Awards, which are such an important and valuable platform in the music industry,” said Hailey Willington, Diversity Equity and Inclusion Manager, BPI. “Our support for this category strongly aligns with our own current Five-Year DEI Strategy and one of its key strands of ‘advocating for and amplifying diversity, equity and inclusion work across the industry'.
“We're excited to support the Women in Music Awards in celebrating outstanding individuals and initiatives that are so brilliantly creating and promoting diverse, equitable and inclusive work environments, as well as in highlighting some of the pioneering examples of changemaking and best inclusive practice across the wider music community.”
