About this event

What do Taylor Swift, your favorite indie band, and the next unicorn startup have in common? They all started with nothing but raw talent, relentless hustle, and zero guarantees of success.

If we think about it, musicians have to be incredible entrepreneurs to launch their careers! Creating great songs is not enough: They need to know how to land their first gigs, grow their fan base, get all the resources they need to produce their first album… Plus, they also need to balance their full-time job with their musical passion, all while dealing with constant rejection when pitching venues and labels. Sound familiar?

That’s exactly why this event focuses on musicians! We see them as exceptional entrepreneurs from whom we can learn so so much!

We’ll host a panel where successful artists will share the entrepreneurial side of their musical journey. You’ll hear from artists who have just broken through, as well as some performers with years of experience.

Join us in this amazing afternoon! Meet awesome people, be inspired by amazing entrepreneurs, and above learn how to get your startup hitting all the right notes.
