The session will take place in Paris, at the Élysée Montmartre (72 Blvd Marguerite de Rochechouart, 75018 Paris), from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. This exclusive networking opportunity will allow French and international professionals to meet a selection of music professionals from various African countries, active in production, management, booking, synchronization, programming, publishing, training, and more. Participation requirements: Professionals from the music or cultural sector aiming to internationalize their projects, with clear goals for collaboration and dissemination, and the capacity to support African artists through their networks and expertise. Each participating structure (label, agency, festival, media, institution, etc.) may be represented by only one person, due to limited seating capacity. Participants must be available for the entire duration of the session (each meeting lasts 10 minutes; no individual adjustments can be made once the final schedule is set). The meeting schedule will be arranged as much as possible based on availability and preferences, within the limits of capacity. Submitting the form does not guarantee participation. Confirmations will be sent as soon as possible.
