Panel: Financing the Entertainment Sector & New Revenue Models

It’s called SHOW BUSINESS for a reason. Before and after the show, we have the business aspect. Our music industry is littered with a plethora of upcoming artists and record labels who whilst they have a great talent pool look extremely unattractive to the banks and as a result cannot survive in the harsh unregulated and unstructured music environment that we operate in.

Financing the Entertainment Sector & New Revenue Models will look at new revenue and business models that have sprung up with the emergence of social media and the digital music space.
