Meet and Greet Meeting of the YOUNG 2025 and YEMPers
Published: Jun 30,2025

On 28 June 2025, IFCM and the European Choral Association (ECA) organised a 'Meet & Greet and Online Training' event for young managers participating in two training programmes within the Choral TIES project, which is co-funded by the EU's Creative Europe programme. This meeting brought together:

  • Participants in the Young Event Management Programme (YEMP) at Leading Voices in Tallinn, Estonia, an event organised by ECA in collaboration with the Estonian Choral Association and the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, and
  • Participants of the 2025 YOUNG (Youth International Cultural Management Programme) at the Pueri Cantores festival in Munich, Germany, organised by Pueri Cantores International in collaboration with a number of local partners.

The aim was for the young managers to meet, expand their networks, and learn more about the programmes and events. They also had the opportunity to hear about useful online resources from IFCM and ECA. They are now all very excited to meet each other at the two events and experience these special training programmes.
