Symphonic Launches Fourth Annual Women Empowered+ Mentorship Program

About Women Empowered+

Women Empowered+ is a mentorship program aimed at furthering the progress of women throughout the music industry. After experiencing the immense success of last year’s program, we’re looking forward to introducing new mentors to the team this year who can offer valuable guidance and advice to mentees. 

“After the success of last year’s mentorship program, we are gearing up for our biggest year yet,” explains Janette Berrios, VP of Corporate Marketing at Symphonic. “I am incredibly grateful to and inspired by all of the new executives coming on board this year who share our dedication to lifting up the next generation of music industry leaders. I can’t wait to witness all of the new relationships and opportunities that will be forged throughout this year’s program.”

“In these three years, we have been able to connect over 790 women by providing support, guidance, and career growth. I am excited to see how our community continues to grow and build a network of support and friendship that knows no bounds. We remain more committed than ever to generating spaces and actions that support women in this industry.” says Ana Maria Gamboa, Client Marketing & DSP Relations at Symphonic

Now in its fourth year, the program to date has welcomed 700 participants and connected mentors from companies across the music industry with mentees spanning the U.S., Mexico, Latin America, South America, Europe, and Africa. Mentors and mentees will be selected and introduced to each other in April and will meet for at least one hour a month for the next six months either virtually or in person.

In addition, Symphonic will host a kickoff call in April for all participants to review best practices. There will be a midpoint check-in in July to assess progress and recalibrate if necessary, as well as a final wrap-up meeting in November with all mentors and mentees to reflect on the program and what participants have learned. 📚

Interested in getting involved?

Mentees from the program have gone on to work at some of the largest and most influential music companies, and their feedback has continued to be immensely positive. We’re so proud to get this going for the fourth year in a row!
