A conversation on one of music’s biggest structural flaws: talent without infrastructure becomes wasted potential.

This panel challenges how the industry treats artists, not as products to monetize, but as companies to build, govern, and scale.

From ownership and IP to governance and long term value, this is about rethinking what it really takes to build artists that last.
