SUUM Studio Announces Groundbreaking Investment for Music Industry Innovation!
We're thrilled to announce a significant investment from Innovate UK following our success in the Creative Catalyst competition!
This funding will fuel the development of a revolutionary software concept: a 3D digital social space specifically designed for music professionals to deepen fan engagement and unlock new revenue streams.
This isn't just about connecting online, it's about redefining music interaction in the digital world! Our platform fosters genuine connections and enhances the fan experience, making it a game-changer for artists navigating the digital landscape.
Pauline McCloy-Turtle, CEO of SUUM Studio, shares the excitement:
"Our team has crafted a vision that could truly transform artist-fan connections. With Innovate UK's backing, we'll turn this vision into reality, empowering artists to engage with their communities in more meaningful ways. We're also fortunate to collaborate with industry experts Dougal Perman (Inner Ear) and Mark McGlinchey (Grey Matter FM) whose expertise will be instrumental in making this platform a success."
Charles Turtle, CCO of SUUM Studio, adds:
"This project perfectly blends our passions for music, gaming, and 3D animation. It's an exciting challenge - not just creatively, but also as a future-proof business model for music monetization. Artists gain new ways to reach fans, perform live, and unlock financial possibilities - all within an immersive virtual space."
