With these realities in mind, it is critical that manufacturers, dealers and music schools adapt their engagement approach, in order to build real connections with future musicians and industry leaders. This presentation will help attendees to seed tomorrow's music consumer through the use of custom branded educational content.

The panel will feature MI’s Mike Ramsey, Brandon Marlon of Peavey, Chris Cannella of ESP Guitars, and Mike Cipari of SJC Custom Drums. Musicians will learn what manufacturers are looking for in an endorsing artist; what the endorsee needs to provide; and what the manufacturers can do to support their endorsee’s career.
