Notes from the Entrepreneurs of Project Music

- Ayumi Fukuda Bennett -

After four months of learning, doing and pivoting, Project Music, Nashville Entrepreneur Center‘s ‘first in the nation’ accelerator for the music industry, wrapped up its second season this past Monday.

We were fortunate to get backstage access to this final performance, and like giddy concert-goers, we had a writing instrument in hand for these ‘performers’ to sign something. In our case, we asked for some entrepreneurial wisdom.
