Many PULSE sessions for the development of the careers of emerging musicians were supported by the EP:IC project (Emerging Professional Internationalisation of Music Careers) led by the European Choral Association. Other sessions on the professional development of choral and vocal leaders were provided by the Training Leading Voices project (led by ZIMIHC). Both projects are co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.
