The Society for the Promotion of New Music (SPNM) was founded in London in 1943 with the intention of promoting the creation, performance and appreciation of new music. It is a membership organization which aims to find the best new composers and to help support their careers, especially in the UK.
It awards the annual Butterworth Prize for musics composition (There are also Butterworth Prizes for law and for Literature).
