A2IM & AIM: Indie Trades Groups Join Forces

US independent music trade organization A2IM is joining forces with its UK counterpart AIM to provide members access to databases, contacts lists, "how to" guides and other resources from both markets. The groups are members of the Worldwide Independent Network (WIN) and hope to link similar reciprocal deals with more territories.

 "Knowledge is power in business, and having access to market information and relevant industry contacts is vital," AIM CEO Alison Wenham told Billboard. "This collaboration between AIM and A2IM will allow members of both to increase their knowledge, contacts and understanding of the market across the pond."
