With next year’s Midem dates already announced, now the industry conference has a new advisory board, which will help it to compile its programme for 2017. The inaugural board includes WMG’s Stu Bergen; Budde Music International’s Rolf Budde; The Orchard’s Scott Cohen; Sony/ATV’s Nicolas Galibert; Greenberg Traurig’s Joel Katz; Believe Digital’s Denis Ladegaillerie; BMG’s Hartwig Masuch; United Talent Agency’s Natalia Nastaskin; Sacem’s Jean-Noël Tronc and Alibaba’s Gao Xiaosong. “The Midem Advisory Board represents all segments of the music ecosystem, from labels to publishers and music tech, as well as the key global music markets,” claimed Reed Midem’s Jérôme Delhaye. This is the first such board for Midem, so there is clearly room for its demographic makeup to evolve in the future: additional members could and should shift its balance in terms of gender and ethnicity, for example.
