SMIA Creative Conversations are a series of inspirational events hosted by the Scottish Music Industry Association (SMIA). The events take the form of a chat show style interview, with a different music industry practitioner being interviewed at each event. The purpose of SMIA Creative Conversations is to allow insights, experience and best practice to be shared with others working in the music industry.
SMIA Creative Conversations: Stuart Cosgrove took place at Hard Rock Cafe Glasgow on 1 March 2017. Stuart was in conversation with SMIA Executive Chair Dougal Perman, discussing his journey through music journalism (including his time as Media Editor at the NME and The Face during the 1980s), with reflections on the state of music media today, and opportunities posed by it.
