The music industry in francophone Africa is experiencing unprecedented momentum. Driven by the growth of streaming, the explosion of talent, and international investment, it is becoming one of the continent's cultural and economic powerhouses. Yet behind this dynamism lies a key challenge: how to sustainably structure an ecosystem that creates value for artists, professionals, and local markets?
This conference explores the models currently taking shape: new professional bodies, data and certification systems, regional cooperation, public policies, and partnerships between majors, independents, and digital platforms. It will highlight pioneering initiatives that strengthen transparency, professionalism, and the global recognition of African music.
Beyond observation, the aim is to open perspectives: what paths exist for collective organization of the sector? How can cultural diversity, local market sovereignty, and global integration be reconciled? What synergies can be fostered between private, institutional, and community actors to build a sustainable future?
A key gathering for all who believe in the power of African music as a driver of cultural, social, and economic transformation.
