Midem
- Midem is a prominent annual business tradeshow focusing on the music industry. Musicians, producers, executives and others travel to Cannes, France every year to participate in talks about the industry, network with other players, as well as explore new technologies for music creation and distribution. New artists will often get their chance to be showcased too, with performances held throughout the event. Participants have included the likes of Amazon, BMI, Spotify, and more. Part of Midem is Midemlab - The leading international launch pad for startups offering new opportunities in the music ecosystem. Now in its ninth year, Midemlab is the international pitching competition for cutting-edge startups not only in the music sector, but encompassing tech companies offering solutions that can be used by the creative industries to build new consumer experiences.
