The
conference, which is now in its 4th consecutive year, is part of the lineup of

Lagos 2022, which is hosted in commemoration of World Music Day (21 June).
Team
Lead, Make Music Nigeria, Adeola Akinyemi had this to say, “The Music Business
Conference has evolved to become one of the major highlights of the Make Music
Day celebrations- especially in Lagos which is the hub of the industry. Moreso,
it has become a forum for open and in depth conversations about maximizing
opportunities within the Music industry.
This
edition of the Music Business Conference in Lagos, which was aptly themed
“Securing the Bag” because of its special focus on finance, featured two (2)
starstudded panels made up of 5 panelists and 1 moderator respectively.
The
first panel was the “Monetizing Your Music Panel” which had Chioma Onuchukwu
(TuneCore), Gem Uduma (Universal Music), Ekunwe Edward (Mavin Records), Ogaga
Sakpaide (Brother’s Records) and Mobolaji Caxton-Martins (Slice Media) as
panelists with Akinyemi Ayinoluwa (HighTower Solicitors and Advocates) as the
moderator.
While
the second panel was “Wealth Creation (Beyond Music)” and it featured Emmanuel
Babalola (Bundle), Edi Lawani (Showbiz Network Services), Shola Adeyinka
(FundBae), Paul Okeugo (Chocolate City Group), and Vector “Olanrewaju Ogunmefun
(Music Artiste) as panelist, and moderating was Schullz “Sola Mogaji” (Classic
FM). The discussions on this panel ranged from NFTs to Crypto to Traditional
investment.
Besides
the panels, another major highlight of the event was the Legal Clinic which was
convened by Olisa Agbakoba Legal (OAL) to provide insights on copyrights,
intellectual properties and contracts, in addition to one-on-one legal sessions.
