Ανταπόκριση από την 29. Internationale Live Music Conference του Λονδίνου 8-10/03/17.
Οι Ιταλοί και Γερμανοί συνάδελφοί μας της πρωτοβουλίας ELMA (European Live Music Association) και συνεργάτες του προγράμματος NIMPE (Network for the Internationalisation of Music Producers in Europe) συμμετείχαν στη “Μουσική Συνάντηση Κορυφής” του ILMC (International Live Music Conference) σχετικά με τις τρέχουσες εξελίξεις στο κλάδο των ζωντανών μουσικών εκδηλώσεων σε Ευρωπαϊκό και διεθνές επίπεδο.
Η φετινή ατζέντα συγκεντρώθηκε σε θέματα όπως η ανάπτυξη του Ευρωπαϊκού A&R, η δικτύωση των Ευρωπαίων παραγωγών αλλά και η υγεία ή η ασφάλεια στα μεγάλα φεστιβάλ, τα πνευματικά δικαιώματα ενώ παράλληλα έγιναν παρουσιάσεις από νέες πρωτοβουλίες όπως μεταξύ άλλων, της ELMA και του NIMPE.
Ο κύριος σκοπός της συνάντησης ήταν να επεκτείνει και να εμβαθύνει την ανταλλαγή πληροφοριών με στόχο την καλύτερη και συνεχιζόμενη επικοινωνία μεταξύ των οργανισμών και φορέων της βιομηχανίας του θεάματος.
Ακολουθεί ενημερωτικό δελτίο της ημερίδας και το πρόγραμμα στα αγγλικά.
Our Italian and German colleagues of the European Live Music Association (NIMPE partners) have participated at the second edition of the ILMC Association Summit with a follow up on both current and the latest developments that are of relevance for live music organisations on a national and international level.
Assomusica and BDV joined forces on behalf of ELMA association, to provide an update on their efforts to establish a “European Live Music Association” in Brussels. Assomusica will also report on its project to create a “European Network for the Internationalization of Music Producers.”
This year’s agenda featured topics such as health and safety at festivals, copyright and royalty issues and secondary ticketing, as well as updates, reports and presentations by various associations on their current achievements and activities.
The main aim of the meeting was to expand and deepen the exchange of information and communication between live entertainment industry organisations, by sharing experiences and knowledge.

The chance for attendees to introduce themselves and their organisations before the Summit begins.
11:00 -12:00: New Initiatives and Campaigns for Festivals
There are various initiatives that tackle health & safety issues at events, including among others sexual harassment on festivals. The first presentations will be the introduction of the “Take A Stand” campaign, a pan-European mission for society engagement by the festival organisation Yourope.
TESDER will present on the Event Safety Symposium held in Istanbul, in collaboration with ILNESS, and will report on Istanbul’s “Certificate programme”. The Association of Independent Festivals will then discuss their planned public campaign for sexual safety at events and charter of best practice, and their fight for onsite forensic drugs testing at festivals. In addition to this, Live Music Sweden will report on their findings for how to deal with this matter, as well as the recent move in Sweden regarding police costs at festivals.

12:15 – 12:45: Secondary ticketing
Music Canada Live and the Music Managers Forum (MMF) UK, who will present their FanFair Alliance campaign, will tackle the issue of secondary ticketing. This has become a key topic for conversation due to its recent financial growth, as questionable incidents in various countries have garnered extensive media coverage. This has lead to the rise in demand for legal regulation of unauthorized secondary ticketing.

LiveKomm, De Concert! and the Music Venue Trust will provide overviews of their current initiatives dealing with the protection of grassroots music clubs and venues in their respective territories.

14:30 – 15:00: From Neighbourhood to Neighbouring Rights
Assomusica and BDV will join forces to provide an update on their efforts to establish a “European Live Music Association” in Brussels. Assomusica will also report on its project to create a “European Network for the Internationalization of Music Producers.”
In the light of the next session about “Performance Royalties”, one of the most priority topics for this meeting, BDV will introduce their newly launched “Collecting Agency for the Neighbouring Rights (GWVR)”, which targets European promoters.
15:00 – 15:15: Coffee break
15:15 – 16:00: Data, Money & Performance Royalties
The topic of “Collection Societies & performance royalties” appeared on the agenda for the 2016 Association Summit, and so it does this year again. The NACPA will address questions regarding “single license rates” while IMMF address stakeholder ID and extracting more value from live performances through efficient use of data.
15:45 – 16:00: Conclusions and Next Steps
Winding up the day, a brief discussion on how live music associations could communicate better, and whether there is a need for a working group or loose forum of associations.
