AUTHOR

CreatorWeek 2024, not to be confused with Meta’s version of the same name, is set to ignite creativity and innovation as it brings together a constellation of professionals from the entertainment industry.

With a diverse lineup of speakers, attendees can anticipate it as a prelude to producer, Branded’s “All That Matters”, which typically takes place in Singapore during the Formula One race period in September.

The festival opens with a captivating conference offering three distinct tracks: Music Matters, AI Matters and CreatorWorld.

Local news publishing stalwart, Mediacorp, is represented by their Chief Customer and Corporate Development officer, Angeline Poh. Some interesting international profiles include Farhad Meher-Homji, Co-Founder of Changer, will speak about how to support creator’s career via content creation and distribution, while Anthony Brown, CEO of Breakr, will elaborate on how he developed a marketplace for influencer and artists, which explores innovative strategies to connect them to new payment methods; or ways to get their music played within clubs or entertainment hotspots.

Others, who are at the forefront of shaping the South-East Asian music scene include Meng Ru Kuok, CEO & Founder of Caldecott Music Group, that runs a portfolio of music-related businesses, spanning well-known guitar retail concept, Swee Lee; media ventures, NME and Gawker, as well as their flagship music-tech product BandLab, whose mission is to democratize music making for the masses. Not forgetting, of course, global music publishing giant, Universal Music Group, behind big names such as Taylor Swift and Jay Chou, whose brand presence in this region is led via Calvin Wong, CEO of South-East Asia and Senior Vice President of Asia.

Anchoring performances include Music Matters Live at Clarke Quay. Taking place from 8 – 11 May, it offers an energetic display of talent, including Girls To The Front, an NME live music series dedicated to featuring the most thrilling female and non-binary performers.

In tandem with the celebration of music, CreatorWeek spotlights female talent with It’s A Girl Thing, a segment dedicated to amplifying the voices and achievements of women in the creative and entertainment industries. Notable speakers such as Deepti Jasti, Head of Music & Podcast Content Strategy, YouTube APAC, will lead discussions on breaking barriers and fostering inclusivity within the industry.
