LAWYERS AND MANAGERS DISCUSS HOW THE GAME HAS CHANGED

The music business has and continues to fundamentally change.

With fascinating trends over just the last 12 months: Billions are being spent on catalogue acquisitions; there has been a surge in revenue growth opportunities in spaces such as NFTs/metaverse; artists continue to find new ways to ‘break out’, such as through branding and social media platforms like TikTok; and, to top it all off, some superstar artists are pulling their catalogues from streaming platforms, which highlights the complex web of rights and rightsholders within the music business.

Join this panel of experienced entertainment lawyers and managers for a discussion on these wide-ranging topics, which all share a common theme: ‘the game has and continues to change’.
