Austrian Music Export, a joint initiative of mica – music austria and the Austrian Music Fund, is the catalyst for Austrian music on the international stage. We are a service and resource center for exporters of contemporary Austrian music in all genres and aspects, providing information, advice, and travel support to Austrian artists and businesses. Our activities include network-building with international industry professionals and the media, representing Austrian music at international festivals, conferences, and trade shows, and promoting Austrian artists at international showcases, with the goal of strengthening the international presence of Austrian labels, agencies, and musicians.
