In her Keynote The Diaries of a music and tech adventurist on the road, Grammy Award winner Imogen Heap will share the progress of a 12-month, 40-city technology and music tour as she meets music makers and shapers working to better seek, acknowledge and reward creators through transformative technologies.

Highlighting how innovations such as Distributed Ledger Technology, Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality have the potential to change the lives of music makers, this tour, through The Creative Passport – a new digital identity standard - is on a mission to helping to set the framework for a fair, vibrant and flourishing music industry.
