Music Equality Forum (MEF) arose from the need to combat gender inequalities in the music industry. MEF is possible thanks to the union created between BIME and various organizations fighting for a fairer industry that guarantees equal participation with free and equal access to resources, recognition, and decision-making.
2017
We started working with Asociación MIM (Women of the Music Industry) to develop a gender equality-focused program
2018
We committed to Keychange, a global network and movement working for a complete restructuring of the music industry to achieve full gender equality
2019
We gave greater recognition and visibility to women and LGBTQ people in our BIME Pro program
2020
We increased collaborations with organizations focused on women and LGBTQ people
2021
We created the Music Equality Forum (MEF) space
2022
We continued forging key alliances and raising awareness of the gender inequality that exists in the music industry
2023
We published the results of the "HACKING THE GENDER GAP" working group held in Barcelona, Bilbao, Buenos Aires, and Bogotá in collaboration with FEMNOISE.
2024 Objective: To promote gender and racial equality in the music industry, ensuring fair opportunities, eliminating stereotypes, and creating a safe and diverse environment that celebrates talent regardless of gender or race. We are working to eliminate systemic barriers.
86% of women in the Music Industry claim to have encountered a barrier when being hired (Asociación MIM, 2022). This year, for the first time in history, a trans woman was nominated for the Premio Lo Nuestro in the Female Artist category (LATV, 2023). In the last 10 years, only 13.6% of the GRAMMY nominations have been for women (Inclusion In The Recording Studio?, 2022). "In Latin America, only 15% of record labels are owned by women" (Linda Criollo, 2021). "Although the origin of music is unquestionably African, in mainstream music, the majority of artists are not Afro-descendants" (Edna Liliana Valencia, 2023).

With nearly a hundred organizations and initiatives in our directory, we seek to boost the growth of women and the LGBTQ community in music. We prioritize strategic alliances, using the directory as a key connection tool. Our goals include fostering collaborations, offering development opportunities, and creating a positive change in the industry by promoting inclusion and diversity. You can download the Directory of Women and/or LGBTQ Organizations using the button below.

With the support of the European Union's Creative Europe Program, BIME has been part of the Keychange project since 2018, a global network and movement working for a complete restructuring of the music industry to achieve full gender equality.
In 2022, we decided it was necessary to reward all initiatives that work towards gender equality in the music industry.
Thus, we created the Ibero-American BIME Equity Awards in collaboration with Amazon Music.
In 2023, we will celebrate the second edition of the awards, and the winning initiatives donated their prizes to the project they chose.
BIME brings us closer to the music supervision community. As part of its program, BIME Pro includes a series of talks focused on this sector, which delves into music synchronization across various media and digital platforms such as film, television, and advertising.
A music supervisor is a qualified professional who oversees all aspects related to music in film, television, advertising, video games, and any other existing or emerging visual media platforms, as needed.

Promote the art of music supervision for the mutual benefit of all stakeholders in media including film, television, games, advertising, trailers, and emerging media.
Provide an environment where the knowledge, resources, and specific skills of music supervision are expanded and shared as a means to uphold the highest level of professionalism and develop collective expertise.High-level practical training led by major companies and top international professionals from the music industry.

Structural and Sound Fundamentals in the Evolution of Modern Acoustics by Leo Buendia – Thursday 30/10: 16:00h – 20:00h.
“Constructive optimization strategies for a guitar of maximum sensitivity, projection, and tonal versatility”
Leo Buendia is an Argentinian luthier based in Oakland, California.
Leo builds unique, handmade acoustic guitars with a true passion for sound and immediate response, sought after by professional musicians, demanding collectors, and guitar enthusiasts worldwide.
“I come from a culture that deeply values connectivity and conversation. It is true that I greatly enjoy working alone, in a highly concentrated and detailed way; but it is working with people, and not only with wood, that makes this my true vocation.”
The Birth of a Guitar by Andrea Tacchi – Friday 31/10: 10:00h – 14:00h.
“Ideas and construction techniques of the classical guitar according to the notes of Robert Bouchet”
Andrea Tacchi is a luthier from Florence, Italy.
He built his first guitar at the age of 15 and since then more than 350 guitars bear his signature.
Tacchi is one of the most renowned luthiers in Italy, known for his profound knowledge of traditional guitar-making techniques and his tireless passion for innovation. His guitars perfectly combine the elegance of historical craftsmanship with his own revolutionary designs, making him one of the finest luthiers of his generation.
Masterclass by Aitzol Iturriagagoitia, international performer and professor at Musikene – 31/10: 10:00h
With an outstanding career as a soloist, chamber musician, and pedagogue, Aitzol has performed in major halls across Europe and America and frequently collaborates in top-level festivals and recordings.
Duration: 50 minutes per student.
Repertoire: Each student will prepare a piece to work on both technique and interpretation.
Methodology: The class will be individual, but open to the rest of the participants, who will be able to observe the process and progress of their peers.
Viola Masterclass by Lader Etxebarria – 01/11: 10:00h
He is currently principal violist of the Bilbao Symphony Orchestra. He also stands out for his chamber music activity, being a founding member of the Quiroga Quartet.
He regularly collaborates as a teacher in various youth orchestras, especially in the field of orchestral preparation and audition repertoire.
Duration: 50 minutes per student.
Repertoire: General repertoire, studies, or orchestral excerpts will be worked on, but it is also open to any technical or musical aspect the student wishes to prepare.
Methodology: The classes will be individual but open to the other participants. The masterclass will focus on the preparation of orchestral auditions of any level. Key aspects will be addressed: managing nerves, body attitude, breathing, active listening, and mental control.
Flamenco Guitar: A Technique to Rule Them All – 01/11: 10:00h–12:00h
Demonstration, analysis, and explanation of the many resources of flamenco guitar technique.
The flamenco guitar encompasses a series of elements and resources extremely rich in expressive diversity that give the instrument unique sonorities:
Rasgueados, Alzapúa, Percussion on the wood, Arpeggios, Picados.
We will analyze and learn how these can be successfully applied in other musical contexts, studying ways of fusing flamenco technique with technical elements of other genres such as classical, folk, pop, blues… to finally achieve a new, rich, and versatile technique born from the blend of many.
Masterclass with Pipo Romero – 01/11: 12:30h–14:00h
This masterclass will address both technical aspects and the sound and constructive research of the acoustic guitar. We will explore how to bring this instrument to flamenco and other Latin American folk traditions, combining tradition and innovation.
A wide range of techniques adapted from American folk will be reviewed, such as: Travis picking, clawhammer, banjo rolls, use of open strings and open tunings.
In addition, Pipo will share his perspective on string gauges, frequency studies, and the research process that has shaped the unique sound of his project, the result of years of experimentation and collaboration with master luthier Michael Greenfield and D’Addario.
