About Us

The Music Business Society is one of LSE's newest and most ambitious groups. London is a global creative capital and we connect students with the people and organisastions who shape the entertainment industries, and open the doors to opportunity. 

At LSE, many students chase the finance, law, or consulting dream, but overlook that the creative sector can host similar roles in a more soulful environment. This industry relies on the skills LSE students excel in: strategic thinking, adaptability, analytical ability, people skills, global perspectives, and a strong understanding of business and the economy. Our society exists to expose and open pathways into an industry which is dynamic, international, and built to last. Music will always matter, people will always wish to be entertained, and nothing replicates the spark of live performance.
