Sponsorship | FACTOR

May 8, 2025

Value

Maximum amount available is $30,000 per project.

Description

The Sponsorship program allows FACTOR to support music-related projects and events which are not captured in other program mandates. New and genre-specific music festivals, broadcaster conferences, workshops, artist development programs, industry association events, and international showcases are examples of projects that FACTOR has supported.

Eligible Applicants

Canadian owned and controlled companies may apply for funding towards events/projects that benefit a number of different copyright holders.

Extra consideration may be given to projects and events that largely benefit underserved communities, audiences and genres. These may include (for example) Northern, remote and rural communities; Indigenous peoples and Indigenous artists; Black artists and Artists of Colour; artists identifying as LGBTQ2S.

Eligible Expenses

FACTOR funding is paid out in two stages:

  • An advance equal up to 90% of the amount of approved funding is paid out once the application is approved and the funding agreements (a General Agreement and an Annex) have been executed by FACTOR and the Applicant; and
  • The remaining 10% of the funding is paid out when the Completion has been received, reviewed, and accepted by FACTOR. FACTOR will remove any ineligible expenses from the final Completion budget. This may lead to a reduction in the final payment, and in some cases, it may result in the Applicant having to return a portion of the advance.

Deadline Date

Period Three Deadline: January 23, 2025; Period Four Deadline: May 8, 2025
