About us

WE SERVE ASPIRING MUSIC MAKERS

Since it started in 2014, Music Expo has consistently served as an essential gathering for both emerging and established artists and creative professionals.
The conference is renowned for its unique friendliness and up-close proximity between attendees and presenters through inspirational keynotes, thought-provoking conversations, hands-on technology workshops, and career-defining networking opportunities. Our programming covers all aspects of creativity, new technologies, and music business. Our proudest accomplishment is to have significantly impacted attendees’ music careers with productive collaborations to help progress in their music journey, multiplication of revenue streams to to sustain their lifestyle, and for some even win Grammy awards.
Because music is universal, we have been fostering diversity and inclusivity since our beginning. In 2017 we pledged to have a third of presenters be women, a first in the industry. Women represent 28% of our attendees, more than any music conferences. 66% of our attendees are under 34 years old.
As we look ahead to 2024 and beyond, our aim is to continue to adapt and evolve alongside the ever-changing needs of the independent artists and creative professionals while capitalizing on over 20 conferences, 200+ presenters and 1000 hours of programming. Today, AI is transforming how we create, discover, and distribute music. Immersive audio and new live experiences like the Sphere are transforming the way we experience music. Web 3.0, Blockchain technologies are transforming the relationship between artists and their fans.
