Essential Insider Knowledge
Following the recent announcement outlining its first major topics and the Strategies, Opportunities and Responsibilities framework at this year’s conference, ADE Pro now introduces the Essential Insider Knowledge series as a core part of its Strategies track.
The series of keynotes and talks will feature the likes of TikTok’s Global Head of Music, Ole Obermann, to share valuable insights and strategies on the global platform. Attendees will also gain a comprehensive understanding of music business and growing communities on YouTube with leading figures such as YouTube’s Head of Music Business Development Mathieu Rousselot and STMPD RCRDS’ Coen Calkhoven. Meanwhile, top-level leaders at Spotify are set to demystify the platform’s vast opportunities and provide hands-on tools to empower artists and music professionals alike.
In addition, professionals can also delve into the realms of electronic music distribution and production with Beatport’s Senior Vice President of Creator Services, Helen Sartory, who will share her insights on the platform’s role in amplifying music for both producers and DJs. Furthermore, Andreea Gleeson, CEO of TuneCore, will discuss the interplay between music creation and AI in the platform’s future. Under Gleeson’s leadership, TuneCore has earned accolades such as Fast Company’s third most innovative music company, and this keynote delves into the platform’s innovative approach to music creation and distribution.
