ABOUT THIS PANEL
The definition of independence has evolved. Today, building a successful independent career requires more than creative control – it takes the right infrastructure and strategy behind the scenes. From publishing administration and distribution to management, legal, marketing and technology, this conversation explores how executives, artists and their teams can build the right partnerships, determine when and where to invest in additional support, and create an infrastructure that can scale. Industry leaders discuss what it takes to compete at the highest level while protecting ownership and independence.
