A2IM Indie Week
The Independent music community comes together every June in New York City for A2IM’s Indie Week. A2IM Indie Week is a three-day international conference and networking event aimed at maximising the global impact of Independent music. Indie Week includes keynotes, panels, receptions, exclusive networking sessions, and much more. Sounds Australia and AIR, in partnership with ARIA and PPCA, will lead a delegation of Australian independent labels, publishers and industry to A2IM Indie Week in 2026.
Dom Alessio from our team will be participating in the Roundtable: International Market Overview 1 at A2IM Indie Week on Tuesday 9 June from 3 – 4pm.
The roundtable sessions offer informal networking opportunities where one moderator leads discussions and addresses questions from up to 10 Indie Week participants. Each 60-minute session will be divided into four 15-minute segments, allowing attendees to join multiple conversations within the hour. While conversations can flow organically, the moderator will prepare some initial questions to kick things off, such as providing an industry overview of the market, strategies for engaging with markets beyond DSPs, the necessity of having a physical presence (“boots on the ground”), language considerations, popular genres, and music trends, as well as noteworthy festivals, music events, and touring options.
