KZN Music Imbizo is back for the sixth time in seven years.
The premier music business exhibition and conference, which has been independently
run since 2007, will take place at the Royal Hotel (Durban) from August 29 to
31, 2013.
“KZN Music Imbizo is an independent annual music business
exhibition and conference that is held in Durban (South Africa). The conference
collects various music industry stakeholders under one roof to map the way
forward for the KwaZulu-Natal music industry. It is a platform to exhibit,
network, share expertise and knowledge “explains Sphe Mbhele, the project
manager.
The event theme for 2013 is the question “Is The Industry Is Dead?” It will
concentrate on the independent recording labels, support structures plus new
and existing revenue streams. A special session on eventing and event licenses
is on the cards. True to its slogan “Music Is Business To My Ears”, the KZN
Music Imbizo is all about practical ways in which all involved in the music
industry can exploit their talents for financial gain.
KZN Music Imbizo will look the digital and mobile era. The
local online platform KASI MP3 will be used as a case study.
