MusicTank events feature top-drawer speakers and attract a rich and dynamic cross-industry audience; open to all, they also afford excellent networking opportunities. Think Tanks are pitched at mid-level and assume a level of knowledge concerning the music industry in general, if not the subject matter itself.

In an age where a track is generally 'available' as soon as the first promos have been sent out, MusicTank will ask how labels should market and promote their releases in a post-digital age and whether it is possible or even desirable for the media and music businesses to wean each other off their addiction to release dates.
