MIDEM consists of a tradeshow, conferences and concerts over a 4-day period. The MIDEM tradeshow is where all the music sectors get face-to-face and do business, analyze trends and build alliances. The conferences offer panels and workshops providing top-level discussions and ideas. The most intriguing aspect of MIDEM is the enormous amount of musical talent gathered for a series of live performances, promotion and networking. For music showcases, MIDEM carefully selects bands with high export potential. Showcases strongly contribute to artists’ development and allow delegates to discover or promote artists.
Nick Nanton, Esq. said, “I am thrilled and honored to be chosen to represent Barbados at this enormous event! MIDEM is the ‘cream of the crop” when it comes to music industry movers and shakers, as well as some of the world’s best up and coming music talents. MIDEM also offers an opportunity for the global music community to meet face to face to continue tearing down borders and building alliances through the universal language of music.”
