MUSEXPO, the United Nations of Music and Media, kicks off today in Hollywood. This conference is more international in scope than any of the other music conferences, with a specific focus on building music relationships globally. Once again, if you answer my question posted on LinkedIn, you can be seen in Hollywood — the best questions posted for music industry author Bob Lefsetz will be included in his interview Wednesday afternoon.
Ask Bob Lefsetz a question on LinkedIn and be featured at MUSEXPO 2008.
Beyond the Lefsetz interview, there are tons of excellent panels and great bands playing each night, as well as the chance to network with hundreds of music industry professionals worldwide. Read up on the list of panelists below at MUSEXPO's website, or click on the names below to see their LinkedIn profiles.
