CONCLUSIONS: LESSONS LEARNED .................................................................. 16 © TBR Introduction 1. Introduction The five thematic case studies contained in this report formed part of a wider research project commissioned by Arts Council England (ACE), which sought to understand the extent and nature of arts and cultural organisations’ international activities and their impact on financial and non-financial outputs. Twelve National Portfolio Organisations (NPOs) known to deliver international activity were selected and interviewed about their approach and experiences of international working. These organisations represented a cross-section of ACE’s NPOs and, as such, were based in different regions, focused on different art forms, constituted different sizes of organisation and levels of experience. Table 1 (below) provides an overview of the organisations that participated. The aim of the interviews was to capture rich, qualitative information about those organisations’ international activities and to explore their, potentially, different experiences thereby complementing and adding colour to the quantitative data collected from a sector-wide survey. The five thematic case studies cover: Financial motivation for undertaking international work; Artistic motivation for undertaking international work; Establishing and sustaining international partnerships; Maintaining established markets and developing new ones; Celebrating success and overcoming barriers.

Theme One: Financial Motivation Money is not the only motivator The interviews have found that many NPOs’ international work is not financially motivated. Other factors drive them to tour or showcase their work abroad. These include artistic excellence and development, and audience engagement. “International work is complex: we may need to start out from a cultural position before we can move on to something that’s more economically advantageous.” Crafts Council “Often financial elements are emphasised in international work but what gets lost is the message that the quality of one’s work is improved or enhanced through international partnerships…you discover new ways of seeing and doing things.” FutureEverything International work diversifies income However, against a backdrop of reduced public spending, NPOs are expected to be developing more resilient, adaptable and sustainable business models. It follows that diversifying their income streams has become more important, and that international projects, collaborations and co-productions may represent a useful source of revenue and income generation.

  • WOMEX Survey Report and Analysis
    WOMEX Report and Analysis Survey on the Impact of Coronavirus Pandemic on the Global Music Community Data collected between 6 May – 24 May 2020 To better understand the ongoing professional challenges and to assess how the Coronavirus Pandemic has impacted our global music community, we had put together a survey which ran from 06 - 24 May 2020. This report is based on the data collected within this period and is the snapshot of the first two months of the economic crisis: March and April of 2020. Since the enforced lockdown, a lot of developments have taken place within the EU and internationally. The data collected via this survey has helped us in recognising the challenges and issues the Coronavirus Pandemic has brought along with providing us with a bigger picture of the current situation of our sector and invaluable insight on methods, efforts and solutions that are being shared to help the global community. A total of 633 music professionals (including artists, bookers, agents, managers, venue owners, music journalists, music export offices, WOMEX community members and others) altogether from 88 countries took part in this survey. SURVEY PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR BACKGROUNDS The Coronavirus Pandemic has left everyone affected. Being a global music expo, we wished to learn as much as we could from our community members who are living around the world. We reached out to the whole WOMEX community including our partners at various music export offices along with our networks in the music business to get as diverse participation as possible and learn about their region, their struggles and their accomplishments.
