This Event offer “wings” for the new generation to “fly” in the music industry

“I am exciting to see that in these hard times people find ways to get together to follow their passion and debate on certain topics of the industry. These kinds of events offer “wings” for the new generation to “fly” in the music industry. We need more of such gatherings to remind us that the world is small, that music & knowledge have no borders and that networking makes the business evolve.“
