Music Biz, along with presenters Clio Music and G7 Entertainment Marketing, hosted our Brand Summit 2020: Music For Good for the first time virtually.

Supporting the Music in Advertising and Sync
How are brands reassessing music placement and integration across Film / TV advertising, and branded content over the course of the last six months? This roundtable conversation, moderated by Andrew Hampp of 1803 LLC, will focus on how music helps establish an important balance of tone during challenging times, and why sync is still providing much-needed revenue for artists even when they can’t tour. Plus, an exclusive Q&A with 3x GRAMMY-winning singer/songwriter/producer Ryan Tedder on creative partnerships with brands like Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, his new sync licensing firm and raising funds for COVID-19 relief efforts.

Supporting Partnerships in Music & Cannabis
As the cannabis industry continues its path toward broader legalization, artists have taken a significant role in working with brands to share their personal stories, amplify other voices, and support important social causes. In this session moderated by Grasslands Founder and CEO Ricardo Baca, we’ll delve into best practices on how to develop meaningful partnerships between the music & cannabis industries through a conversation with a recording artist and a brand executive.

Supporting the New Live
In the final webinar of our Brand Summit 2020 program, we’ll look at MRC Data’s 360 Report, offering insights on the changing behaviors, attitudes and preferences of music consumers as we continue to experience the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
With virtual concerts becoming the new normal in 2020 (and likely the standard for most if not all of 2021), what does that mean for new levels of innovation for production, for brand engagement, and from the artists performing at these shows? We’ll hear from the head of global sponsorship for SXSW and a GRAMMY-winning musician about the live trends developing now and where they’re heading.
We’ll round out the webinar by learning how the Cisco Global Events team reimagined live music integrations for the company’s largest customer event and tradeshow, Cisco Live, when it became evident that an in-person event would not be possible in June 2020.
