Stuart Barr Email & Phone Number

With a squiggly career that has led me from being a musical performer at international level to being a CEO & Chair, I bring a breadth of experience and dynamic leadership to roles, delivering transformational outcomes.🌟 Unlocking Creativity & Organisational Potential:As an experienced Founder/CEO, Chair and Consultant, I have a strong track record of building dynamic teams, driving innovation, advocating at the highest level and enabling excellence across culture, education and technology. 💡 Pioneering Change - Impacting Millions:I have pioneered A.I. to accelerate people’s music learning and am currently commercialising our technology at Hey Maestro with a variety of partners – and raised £0.3m in venture capital for a previous tech company. 🎶 From Podium to Entrepreneurship:Before embarking on my entrepreneurial path, I honed my skills as an international music director/singing coach for two decades, including six years as conductor/music producer to Dame Shirley Bassey, conducting acclaimed performances from The Oscars to the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.🎓 Academic Excellence & Passionate Pursuit:Armed with an MBA from Cambridge University, my focus in Culture, Arts, and Media Management has empowered me to fuel my passion for using technology to unlock people’s musical potential worldwide.🌟 Dynamic Governance - Empowering Organisations:I firmly believe in the power of good corporate governance to propel organisations’ success. My reputation is for assembling dynamic yet collaborative boards to power growth and transition. As Chair of the London Youth Choirs, I played a pivotal role in transitioning it from start-up to the capital’s flagship youth singing organisation; and am currently helping bring the London Musical Theatre Orchestra into its next chapter as its recently-appointed new chair.💪 Advocating Music's Influence:I believe passionately in advocating for the power of culture at the highest levels. In the pandemic, I founded the successful Out To Perform campaign, resulting in a government U-turn and other deregulatory wins that enabled outdoor performances to flourish.I’m always looking out for people to join me on helping unlock human creativity through the power of music, so reach out to me for exciting collaborations, strategic partnerships or opportunities to join forces in shaping a brighter future.#Innovation #Entrepreneurship #MusicTech #Education #Leadership #Advocacy #CorporateGovernance
