![]() More Top International Speakers!China was long regarded as the sleeping giant of the music world. But now the picture is changing, influenced by the dynamics of technology, political change and cultural opening. We are pleased to welcome Scarlett Li (VP - Music & Live Entertainment Division, China Media Capital, CN) and Mathew Daniel (NetEase Cloud Music, Vice-President, International, CN) to the conference line-up, two distinguished speakers who will bring us up to speed on the potential of the Chinese music market. ![]() Jackie WilgarAs Senior Vice President Marketing International at Live Nation Entertainment Jackie Wilgar oversees the development of digital consumer technology in web, mobile, social, CRM and media for an expanding business in over 40 countries. With 90% of the Live Nation International Festivals now using mobile app tech, she is indeed a „Top Digital Power Player 2017“ as Billboard magazine called her recently. We are happy to learn from her about the integration of a single platform for content distribution and an interactive global discovery map for more than 125 festivals and how these helped to constantly increase ticket sales and partner revenue across international markets over the recent years. ![]() Jean-Noël TroncFrom our 2018 partner country, France, Jean-Noël Tronc is CEO of Sacem, the world's largest music society for authors, songwriters and publishers. With its political and legal aspects, rights management lies at the heart of the music industry. The 2019 European elections are already looming, so common issues like the ongoing copyright reform must be addressed and the role of the creative culture industries as an integral part of European identity must be discussed. Jean-Noël Tronc has recently been appointed as “cultural and creative industries unifier” by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs. At the Reeperbahn Festival Conference he will talk about the “soft power” approach that characterises the French and European positions in the global market.

Mathew has been one of the pioneers in the development of the music licensing market in China for the past 13 years, having started the distribution company R2G with his partners. After the acquisition of R2G by Tencent Music in 2016, Mathew moved to NetEase Cloud Music (NCM) to head up their international music division.
