The Taki Alsop Conducting Fellowship is a programme to encourage and support women conductors. It holds a biennial event to select conductors to join the fellowship scheme. It was founded in 2002 by Marin Alsop, as the Taki Concordia Conducting Fellowship. The organisation promotes gender diversity in conducting and is one of the most sought programs in the sector. As of June 2026, thirty women conductors have benefitted from selection for participation in the scheme.
