About AE West:

AE West (Artist Entrepreneur West) is a month-long creative entrepreneurship program designed to empower emerging artists by providing them with the practical skills, knowledge, and resources needed to thrive in the music industry. The ninth edition of the AE West program takes place from November 3 to December 4, 2025 at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre in Calgary.

AE West is an extension of CMI’s highly regarded, Toronto-based Artist Entrepreneur (AE) program and represents a partnership between CMI, a national not-for profit organization, and NMC. The majority of costs for the program are offset thanks to the generous support of TD Ready Commitment, Stingray Radio, the Government of Canada, Canada Council for the Arts, and Manitoba Music.

Building on the success of CMI’s long-running Artist Entrepreneur program (established in 2012), AE West is designed to help emerging artists and bands from all genres build their businesses and careers. Artists will work closely with Canada’s Music Incubator and the National Music Centre team of social media, marketing, management, promotion, publicity, funding, touring, songwriting and live performance experts. They will also be introduced to a wide range of active music industry professionals. Artists also have ongoing access to CMI mentors and industry resources post-program.
