FIRST PROGRAMME ANNOUNCEMENT * WOMEX Conference: A Year for Strategies
This year WOMEX, in its Guide and Conference sessions, has as its principal focus the whole notion of strategies. Strategies for making the right decisions as an artist, a distributor, a label, a festival. Strategies for creating a more creative and adaptable business model. Strategies for maximizing understanding of - and opportunities in - the digital age.
There are two new features: Master Classes and Mentoring Sessions.
The Master Classes feature up-to-the-minute advice from industry experts. These sessions will cover many practical issues including ones hosted by a lawyer, festival organiser, digital expert, broadcaster and artist manager.
The Mentoring Sessions offer free, private consultations with experienced colleagues from a wide variety of fields. Don't apply yet, we'll announce the procedure soon.
