Modern Music Entrepreneurs
The contemporary music industry professional must be entrepreneurial to get ahead. How do you pivot your business model? How do you harness and utilise the power of your data? What do you need to know to stay on top? Where are the opportunities for future business development in music? SMIA chair Dougal Perman invites a panel of modern music entrepreneurs to talk about how they answer these questions, keep focused and be progressive.
