Welcome to Midem 2016 2016 brings us the 50th Anniversary of Midem and another year of GREAT British music. Since the sixties the British music industry has introduced some of the biggest and most innovative artists and music to the world and it still continues today. The UK industry enjoyed another fantastic year in 2015 with British artists accounting for 5 of the top ten albums sold around the world last year! None of this success comes easily against the ongoing transition of the overall music market, the resulting change in consumer behaviour and expectations, as they become ever more sophisticated and demanding but many still questioning the value of music. However, just as we have faced many challenges over the last fifty years, British musicians, writers and industry continue to prove their worth and creativity and would be delighted to meet and do business with you, so please come and visit us. Come and meet some of the entrepreneurs and discover how, when great music and great minds get together, when the business is more complex than ever before, success can be achieved – 4 through a combination of determination, skill, ideas and relationships! And whilst technology continues to play a critical role in the development of music making, distribution and consumption, what lies at the heart of this industry are people and relationships - and it is the details of those people that you will find in the pages of this brochure. These are just some of the names and the companies in the UK who have contributed, in varied ways, to the success, diversity and ingenuity of the British music industry. These include, amongst many - people from record companies, streaming services, publishers, managers, production libraries, distributors, aggregators, studios, related tech companies and much, much more. You will find the British at Midem stand located in the Riviera Hall at R7M24, staffed by people who can guide you and help you. These are representatives across the core of the business – trade bodies and licensing companies, along with the government organisation, UK Trade & Investment, who are here to assist UK companies to export - as well as international companies looking to set up and do business in the UK. These people, who represent all the various components of the business are here to work and help all Midem delegates, from anywhere around the world, develop relationships - and in turn do business . . . The British Music Partners AIM, BPI, MPA, PPL, PRSfM and UK Trade & Investment Quotes AIM & AIM AWARDS “At AIM, we are looking forward to seeing all our friends from around the world at the British at Midem stand, and also to celebrate Midem’s 50th anniversary. Some of us have been attending since the beginning, some of our delegates are brand new to Midem – this demonstrates its enduring relevance to so many of us working in the industry. Comparing the early years to today, the business has proved itself to be robust, capable of constant invention and reinvention and is still a relatively young industry with a great future ahead for us all.” ALISON WENHAM - Chairman & Chief Executive BPI & BRIT AWARDS “It’s a hugely exciting period for British music, which is enjoying sustained success at home and around the world. In 2015 five of the top ten selling artists globally were UK artists, and British music continues to grow its share of the European music market. The BPI works hard to both, promote and protect work by British labels and artists – and our Content Protection team, including its new head, Tim Cooper, will again be in attendance at Midem as part of the British Music Pavilion –so please do stop by to say hello and to discuss any opportunities that may exists for us to work together. We’d like to take this opportunity to sincerely congratulate Midem on the landmark of its 50th anniversary.” GEOFF TAYLOR - Chief Executive MUSIC PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION “The music business moves forward at ferocious speed, and it is testament to Midem that, in its 50th year, the event retains its relevance for UK music publishers as a place to meet, to learn and to do business. Quite simply, it is a pivotal date in the calendar. 2016 will be no different, and as partner of the British at Midem stand, the MPA team looks forward to meeting with our member delegates as well as the wider international music community.” JANE DYBALL - CEO MPA Group of Companies PPL “British musicians continue to achieve global success on an extraordinary scale and their cultural and economic contribution should never be overlooked. British songs get played and heard all over the world. Midem has played an important role throughout all those years of success for British music on the International stage. PPL too has a long and proud history going back to 1934 and so we share in celebrating Midem’s landmark moment in reaching your distinguished half century! On behalf of all our members we salute you and thank you for being such a wonderful host, friend and, most importantly, such a great supporter of British music all those years.” PETER LEATHEM - Chief Executive Officer GREAT BRITAIN CAMPAIGN & UK TRADE & INVESTMENT “British music is world-renowned for being innovative and pioneering. From the expertise of recording studios such as Abbey Road, to ground-breaking virtual reality orchestras such as the London Philharmonia, the UK has always been highly influential in the music industry. And as the second largest exporter of music after the US, with an abundance of talent as diverse as from Adele to Andrew Lloyd Webber, the UK has a long history of developing new and globally successful artists. The GREAT Britain campaign is proud to support this creative and diverse industry that makes such a significant contribution to global culture.” CONRAD BIRD - Director of the GREAT Britain Campaign 5 Partners AIM BPI AIM is the trade association that provides a collective voice for the UK’s independent music industry.
