VMDO Music Data and Insights Summit

Over two days at Collingwood Yards, the summit will feature  keynotes, panels and presentations covering a range of topics such as live music venue data, workplace skills trends, music consumer insights and analysis of the streaming economy.

Speakers include UK-based music data strategist Chris Carey, RMIT University academic Associate Professor Catherine Strong and Ben Green from the Music Industry Research Collective (MIRC), with more to be announced.

During the summit, Music Australia, in partnership with Untitled Group and The Daily Aus, and in collaboration with The Push, will launch its Listening In: Insights on Live Music Attendance report.  It will offer valuable insights into audience behaviours, preferences and attitudes towards live music in the context of changing social and economic conditions. This report  is the first in a three-part research series exploring how Australians discover, experience and engage with music.

The summit is delivered by the VMDO and supported by Music Australia and the Music Industry Research Collective.
