Our next guest published a report on the impact of the pandemic on live music and developed grant funding to keep sector active through online platforms. The Digital Mobility Fund has run two successful application cycles over the past 18 months. Concerts SA has impacted 12 000 artists and 900 venues across southern Africa. It has partnered with the Royal Norwegian Embassy, the National Arts Council, the Southern African Music Rights Organisation and the Levedo Foundation. In addition to grant funding, Concerts SA held three intensive music business workshops to promote online concerts’ business models across the country
