- Alan Cross, Professional Music Geek, Corus Entertainment
- Steve Kane, President, Warner Music Canada
- Paul Tuch, Director of Canadian Operations Nielsen Entertainment
The description of the panel reads: “The record label structure has drastically changed over the last 20 years. From its sole purpose of selling albums, what is the new structure and formulation of music in 2016? How are writers, artists and producers succeeding and making money through new techniques of business and placement of their music? Do streaming services actually provide a sustainable structure?”
