“Why to act in isolation,” continues LMC Director Sam Speaight, “struggling against one another to scratch out and guard our own little patch of dirt, when instead we can come together and co-exist be empowered to create a better business, better culture, and better music?”

London Music Conference is a convergence point for this idea and hopes to facilitate the fostering of cooperation, co-existence and community within music and the music industry on an international scale.

As the conference evolves we hope that its growth will fuel an ever-increasing empowerment of the artists, fans, and professionals in the UK music space through the power of community and co-creation.”
