Evolution Emerging Conference
Event Information
Description
Generator is proud to present the region’s largest music industry conference in celebration of the 10th annual Evolution Emerging Festival.
With tickets selling fast for the longest standing showcase of emerging music in the North East, we are happy to confirm we will also present a free music business gathering at Sage Gateshead on Wednesday, 6th June, just days before the music festival on Saturday, 9th June 2018.
Speakers will include representatives from some of the nation's largest industry music organisations including Musician's Union, PRS for Music, BPI, PPL, Help Musicians UK, MMF (Music Managers Forum), direct-to-fan ecommerce platform, Music Glue, and the independent music publisher, Sentric Music, in a bid to share its insider knowledge of the modern music industry.
Featuring over 30 industry guests and internationally acclaimed speakers covering contemporary topics and opportunities that exist in the industry this year, Generator believes it’s a date in the diary that people who are serious about the business side of music can't afford to miss.
Taking place in the Hall Two, The Barbour Room, and the Music Education Centre, the Evolution Emerging Conference takeover of Sage Gateshead will place a special focus on emerging artists, managers and promoters.
It will cover a range of hard-hitting topics including the state of labels in 2018, how musicians can make their music pay, tricks of the management trade, mental health in the music industry and will also feature a special insight into gender inequality in the music industry delivered by Generator's WeCreate Project.
Please note that this event is free to attend but prior registration is essential.
