AGM and Annual Reports

AGM

AIM's AGM takes place each year in June or July, and provides an excellent opportunity for members to find out what AIM has achieved in the previous year, and to contribute ideas to AIM's future agenda.

2011 AGM

AIM's 2011 AGM and AGM sessions took place on 6th May at Glaziers Hall London.

2010 AGM


2010 saw AIM's AGM coincide with our annual digital music trade event, Music Connected. In the midst of the campaign to save BBC 6Music, AIM was lucky to have 6Music presenter and Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker give a presentation to the membership.  

2009 marked AIM's 10th anniversary, and to celebrate we held an AGM that was somewhat out of the ordinary.  We invited all members to submit their 'Big Ideas' for the next 10 years of AIM, which members then voted on to select those which would become part of AIM's manifesto for the next 10 years.
