For music startups looking to secure investment, adoption, partnerships, & clients
Music Industry Access
I help startups choose the right events, secure key meetings, and build connections.
Why this matters for music startups
Industry events offer direct access to decision-makers, clients, and partners. The right ones can help you build trust, understand the landscape, and open doors to investment and collaboration.
But showing up isn’t enough. Many startups waste time at the wrong events or fail to connect in a meaningful way. Follow-up is often neglected. A strategic, long-term approach to networking is what makes the difference.
This is for music startups that want to:
- Expand their network in the music industry
- Meet investors, partners, or clients
- Identify which conferences are worth attending
- Avoid time-wasting outreach
- Build a repeatable networking process that improves over time
