Sophie Small

Currently Head of Operations of Music Gateway where I've been working since not long after it's launch in 2013. Starting off in marketing before growing into an operations role as we've expanded. I've been working in the Music Industry for almost 10 years starting out in the live industry with SJM Concerts touring the UK before moving on to Festival Republic to work with the much loved and respected Tania Harrison on award-winning Latitude Festival and Reading & Leeds Festival who then became a mentor over time which massively helped accelerate my career. When the opportunity to work at Music Gateway came up it was impossible to say no as I've always had a huge interest in the tech industry integration into the music sector. I am more than happy to sit on panels or deliver masterclasses where I can to help empower the industry particularly for the independents!
