Aboutme

Hello and welcome to Hendrik Academy.

As you may or may not already know, my name is Gwythen and I am the founder of Hendrik.

So I started Hendrik Productions three years ago and I founded it in Amsterdam to enable me to be a freelancer, to work in live events ultimately.

And since then I have worked on stage with household names.

You can see all of the artists that I've worked with on, my Instagram account, on some of the biggest stages in the UK and Europe.

And I've built my small freelancing solo project out into a full scale production company and record label.

And that has been my evolution over the last three years.

Now alongside that I have built Hendrik Academy.

You see, before I was freelancing, what I was buried into was business consulting and international business.

So that is where my background and where my roots lie.

So I was already massively into the music industry and started freelancing in the industry and having access to all of these massive artists and all of these awesome stages and all of these insane opportunities, which I'm still very grateful for.

But I was still very, very much business minded.

And coming back to my musical background.

I am currently studying at the Abbey Road Institute in Amsterdam.

I'm studying music production and studio engineering.

I'm a vocalist, I play the guitar and I'm really focusing on modern metal production and that's just kind of what I'm doing.

And I'm in a band and we're releasing an album and going the whole nine yards.

So as you can see, I'm very musically inclined.

But the foundations of the way my brain work are very business focused and that's where I built Hendrik Academy.

Because when, when I was trying to build my music business, I noticed that there were kind of lots of different services and offers and tools spread everywhere and whilst they were valuable in certain aspects, there was never really like an all in one thing that I really loved and that really inspired me to build Hendrik Academy.

So what I've done is I've taken all of the tools and the templates and the software and the systems that you need alongside the A to Z business training that you actually need to go from not even having a business idea, literally laying the foundations of entrepreneurship and getting the foundations of business in your mind, to then thinking of an idea, thinking how you can monetize your skills and then how to sort out all of the backend and all of the software and then scaling and growing and all of that sort of stuff.

So I've basically just taken my passion for business and entrepreneurship and my knowledge and skills for business and merged them into the music industry in a way that I don't think has necessarily been done before I like viewing this as the modern way of doing music I haven't seen anyone else doing what I'm doing and I'm, I'm extremely proud of that so if you're on this website you can see Hendrick community which is our free, our free movement like I believe that to an extent like education should be free for everyone so I've tried to make that as good as humanly possible but obviously see I can't give all of my signature systems and software and then a lot of my actual one to one time in that unfortunately and that's where Hendrick Academy comes in so feel free to check it out Follow me on Instagram connect with me on any other social media and I look forward to seeing you inside of the community Goodbye.
