10 Years of shesaid.so & Nurturing Micro-Communities in Global Markets
Speakers: Phiona Okumu (Head of Music Sub-Saharan Africa, Spotify), Aluna (Artist)
Moderator: Andreea Magdalina (CEO & Founder, shesaid.so)
Join shesaid.so as it reflects on 10 years since launching its online community that aimed to bring women of the music industry together and bring awareness to the disparity that still exists in the business today. Since then, the movement has transcended gender. This talk aims to shed light on monopolization and the lack of support across non-traditional electronic music genres, markets and identities. How can we ensure that these values that built the business in the first place continue to represent the future of electronic music and what role does representation play in this?
