MusicTech Rewinder - More and fairer payout | Music and Instruments for the Metaverses | And a lot more ...
Dear reader,
I keep the foreword short this time because I spent almost the entire week at my favorite music tech event "The Wallifornia Music & Innovation Summit". A gathering of visionaries, dot-connectors, multiplicators, and facilitators in music tech from all over Europe and beyond. Here are some pictures from the last few days.
I also had the pleasure to mentor the startup Hawkr during the accelerator program of Wallifornia. The guys created a new way to massively simplify the complex process of buying and selling merchandise at live gigs for fans and artists through a fully automated marketplace platform & a consumer-facing app, that makes it more profitable, sustainable, and streamlined for both fans and artists. Check it out and let me know if you would like to get in touch with them.
And now, enjoy reading and have a wonderful weekend!
Cheers,
Matt
