Discussion includes: With the impact of new technology and the DIY phenomena are creative clusters the way forward?
Are artists, producers, songwriters, composers and independent labels, publishers and managers more empowered and independent than ever before or is it just an urban myth?
How is new technology putting independent control of the production, distribution and marketing of music in the hands of the creative entrepreneur?
Has the relevance of copyright eroded or is it more significant and central to the new music economy than it’s ever been? What role do these professional associations play?
How do artists, labels and managers develop their live revenue streams and is new technology connecting artists and fans in ever more connected ways?
