Dave Holmes (former worldwide manager Coldplay)
"I'm excited to be participating
at MUSEXPO Asia Pacific & One Movement for Music. The Asia Pacific
region is one of the most rapidly emerging music markets in the world
and I'm looking forward to attending an event that will bring together
some great people from around the globe to this burgeoning music landscape."
Seymour Stein (Co-Founder, Sire Records Group)
"I thoroughly enjoyed MUSEXPO. There are so many of these conferences
around the world, that I really didn't know what to expect. MUSEXPO,
with the quality of its organization and participants, makes it a very
valuable conference to attend. I look forward to participating again
next year. The Focus on Asia was an outstanding panel. Emerging markets
like India and China are the key to the music industry's survival
over the next twenty years."
Steve Schnur (Worldwide Executive Of Music & Marketing, Electronic Arts)
"As tastemakers ourselves, our network includes A&R Worldwide
as a critical resource. Their vast knowledge and connections add to
their ability to musically future forecast with us. Wherever they are
putting on this conference [MUSEXPO], we will be there for sure!"
Korda Marshall (Founder, Infectious Records, UK)
"It was pure serendipity that my teenage children dragged me along
to The Borderline to see an unknown new Australian act called The Temper
Trap playing their first UK gig. I was totally blown away by their songs
and performance and would like to thank the A&R Worldwide organization
for being brave enough to include them at MUSEXPO Europe 2008 in England
to play what's now become a legendary debut London show. A&R Worldwide
have always championed great new talent in a way that is sorely lacking
these days; their enthusiasm, knowledge and networking is exactly what
drives this great business. Their ability to link developing artists
with music executives and radio producers and their unerring support
to connect like-minded people on a worldwide basis is truly unique."
Craig Kallman (Chairman/CEO, Atlantic Records) "[A&R
Worldwide/MUSEXPO Founder] Sat Bisla is brilliantly connected on a worldwide
basis with such terrific relationships to unearth the next great talent.
He also has excellent ears and can spot the hits. Anyone who has the
pleasure of knowing him is blessed."
Nick Gatfield (Founder, Twin Music Inc.) "With their strong international network A&R Worldwide
has the ability to bring together the world's top music talent finders
and developers and their annual conference [MUSEXPO] provides a unique
opportunity for global artist discovery and marketing opportunities."
David Massey (President & CEO, Arista Records) "A&R
Worldwide's MUSEXPO is a great forum to network with other like-minded
executives from all areas of the international music and media business.
In addition, it provides a great selection of evening showcases featuring
new talent from around the world."
Jason Sausto (Chairman & Owner, ONKYO, USA)
"Thanks again for your fantastic hospitality.
I was impressed with both the organization and caliber of attendees."
Daniel Glass (Founder/CEO, Glassnote Entertainment)
"Thank you again for including me in
this year's MUSEXPO. It was one of the most productive conferences
I've attended in years...solutions and advice, rather than negative
nonsense and gossip. The speakers were candid and informative. I was
proud to be on our panel. This was the first time I met Mike Walsh...what
an impressive gentleman! And I loved sharing with Seymour, Peter and
Steve. Congratulations to you and your team for a job well done!"
Bruce Flohr (Chief Strategy Officer & EVP, Red Light Management)
"MUSEXPO has delivered on its promise of organizing an event that
is educational as well as manageable. We left with many new insights
and plenty of new relationships. I look forward to the next one, now
that I know what to expect. "
Alan Galbraith (Director of Business Affairs, Spotify)
"I just want to thank you for putting
on such a great event. It was relevant and fun. Many events manage the
latter, but few combine both. I look forward to the next one."
Alexandra Patsavas (Head Of Music, Original Series, Netflix)
"A&R Worldwide's MUSEXPO is a
great forum to network with other likeminded executives from all
areas of the international music and media business. In addition, it
provides a great selection of evening showcases featuring new talent
from around the world."
Chris Barton (Co-Founder, Shazam)

to the next one!"
David Glick (Founder & Chief Executive, Edge VC, UK)

to participate in the MUSEXPO event, which has been first-rate. I was
pleased to be asked to speak on the UK: State of the (Host) Nation Panel
and I thoroughly enjoyed the session."
James Sandom (Manager, Bastille, Kaiser Chiefs, The Vaccines)
"Thanks MUSEXPO, enjoyed taking part.
It was a very diverse group you pulled together which meant a lot was
discussed, we all enjoyed it."
Jeff Smith (Head of Music,
BBC Radio 2)
"Thank you so much for the invite and
an excellent MUSEXPO, which people are speaking very highly of."
Sumit Bothra (Managing Director, ATC Management)
"The MUSEXPO conference has been, without
question, the most productive and meaningful event of this type I have
attended. I have met some wonderful people from all over the world and
I've experienced a very fraternal environment where people are more
than happy to engage with each other, exchanging ideas, contacts, advice,
and opinions. The networking aspect of the conference was incredibly
open and friendly, which has been of tremendous benefit to us all."

and enjoyed the panel with Seymour and John. You were a gracious host
