As every year, companies, clubs and institutions from Hamburg and across Northern Germany invite you to a joint reception: the Musik-Treffen-Hamburg. On Friday, 18/9, 1:00–3:00 PM you’ll meet labels, pop offices, distributors, clubs, music publishers and other institutions such as VUT-Nord here.

Developing artists requires good teamwork with labels, management, distribution, publishers, funding institutions, and networks. Each brings their own skills and perspectives that complement each other meaningfully. The panel discusses how collaboration can succeed, where synergies emerge, and how a strong support ecosystem for artists can be developed together.
