Before that little lot get fired-up, following Nettwerk CEO/Co-founder and Millennials Report author, Terry McBride's keynote and Q & A, get the low-down on the most influential demographic in the UK today from Philip O'Ferrall, MTV who'll be providing insight on Millennials from a global brand's perspective, closely followed by Russell Hart and Peter Ruppert of Entertainment Media Research, looking at the role UK Millennials play in breaking new artists.

The spotlight will also fall on BBC 6Music's Tom Robinson, Songwriter and Broadcaster, who will delve into the world of three Millennials, teasing out their likes and dislikes - from technology to brands, free versus paid, fandom to music filters and much more.  What better way to understand how music's early adopters tick than to hear from them live and direct?
