Moshito Music Conference and Exhibition
Bio
Moshito Music Conference and Exhibition is focused on its objective of broadening the business intelligence of music industry professionals in South African and the continent, strengthening business networks for participants and informing delegates, traders and the public about the multifaceted and dynamic nature of the global music industry.
Historically, Moshito has its roots in the South African Music Industry Co-operation Initiative (SAMICI) which was formed 2003 as a part of a response to several pressing issues affecting the South Africa industry as a whole. For the first time, a broad base of industry stakeholders joined forces to focus on several key areas of the industry – such as music piracy, the need to develop music markets for South African music (especially beyond the country's borders) and the urgent need to create a social benefit and welfare programme for musicians. In 2014 Moshito is set take place at the SABC in Johannesburg.
