CALL FOR CONFERENCE PAPERS FOR MOSHITO 2012
The music industry, both at a global and domestic level, is experiencing extraordinary transformation. Factors such as globalization, mergers and acquisitions, competition from traditionally non-music companies, and technological innovation are forcing companies to re-think and re-align their business strategies.
In this new environment companies are required – amongst other things – to create new revenue streams, tap into new markets, increase market share and cut down operational costs. They are also expected to cater to the ever-changing expectations and requirements of consumers who are increasingly better informed about their choices and are more demanding. This requires a constant attention to business strategies on the part of all operators of the music industry, who must seek to build defendable competitive and cooperative advantages.
As the premier music conference and exhibition in Africa, Moshito programmes its conference with invaluable insights, emanating from right here at home, across the continent and globe. To this end the annual conference programme offers credible business intelligence on pressing international and national issues, allowing members of the South African music industry to make informed business decisions.
