In September of 2021, we recognized some of Austin's most innovative companies. At this event, Urban Artist Alliance was recognized as an award recipient in our bootstrapped category. Our bootstrapped companies were built from the ground up from only personal savings, luck, and cash from beginning sales. These businesses have done it all on their own without any outside funding.

The Urban Artist Alliance has broken barriers between urban artists and music industry education to successfully merge the two and consistently create economic growth. This will impact Austin's music community by investing back into the arts with the same authentic depth and growth that has yet to be unlocked by many underserved creatives.
