AEI Music has launched AEI Ventures, a new investment initiative targeting entrepreneurs from outside the traditional music and hospitality industries, with a particular focus on historically marginalized communities.

The venture arm will operate independently, funded through AEI Music's profits. Selected founders will receive mentorship, peer support, and funding while joining a collaborative network of innovators.

The initiative follows the successful launch of The Halley, AEI's East London shared workspace and production studios, which serves as a thriving hub for music-driven creatives and will function as an incubator for potential investments.

"We've always found the most success when working with those that come from outside of the traditional sectors we operate in," explains Diluk Dias, Co-Founder & CEO at AEI Music. The company aims to expand beyond its traditional dance music focus to embrace diverse perspectives across music and hospitality.

As a certified B Corporation, AEI Music maintains high standards for staff welfare and environmental responsibility. Sarah Cole, Chief Operating Officer, emphasizes that this investment initiative represents "a crucial next step in our mission to transform the culture of the music industry" by providing opportunities to previously excluded communities.
