In case you somehow missed it earlier in the week, on Tuesday we announced the first 40 speakers who will take part in the CMU+TGE Conference at The Great Escape in May. Once again we will put the spotlight on three different areas of the music business: music education, digital dollars and music marketing.
The Music Education Conference takes place on Wednesday 8 May, building on the debates that occurred at TGE 2018 on how music educators and the music industry can be more closely aligned. Confirmed speakers include Bridget Whyte from Music Mark, Marie Bessant from OCR, Matt Griffiths from Youth Music, Max Wheeler from Charanga, Pamela McCormick from Urban Development and Sam Nicholls from Music Leeds.
The Digital Dollars Conference on Thursday 9 May will review the deals, the processes and the networks behind the streaming business. Confirmed speakers include Alex Branson from Empire, Annabella Coldrick from the Music Managers Forum, Becky Brook from JAAK, Chris Meehan from Sentric Music, Dorothee Imhoff from FUGA and Molly Neuman from Songtrust.
The Music Marketing Conference is sponsored by BPI and takes place on Friday 10 May. It will look at what makes up the music marketing toolkit and how music marketing campaigns are evolving in the streaming age. Confirmed speakers include Andy Varley from Insanity Group, Jackie Wilgar from Live Nation, Malena Wolfer from Believe, Tim Fraser-Harding from Warner Music, Timothy Armoo from Fanbytes and Cassandra Gracey, President of Sony Music’s 4th Floor Creative division.You can find out more about the CMU+TGE conference strands here and get your delegate passes to this year’s TGE here.
