Going Local Hawkes Bay 2025

Ever wanted to know more about the music industry – how it works, who to talk to, what you need, why things happen and where you should look for help?

IMNZ presents a networking session called Going Local. It’s an informal way for you to meet with some established people already working in the music industry, who can offer advice and knowledge that will help to answer some of those questions above. It is also a chance for us to get to know you and hear about your own sound and vision for the future.
The panel session is generally open-ended – you are free to ask the participants about anything music related.

Come and meet Going Local Hawkes Bay 2025 delegates:
Jeff Newton - Music Promoter - Platforms, NZ On Air Music
Dean Cameron - Member Services Manager, Recorded Music NZ
Cath Andersen - Chief Executive, NZ Music Commission
Mike Hall - Manager, Member Operations, APRA AMCOS
Dylan Pellett - General Manager, Independent Music NZ

Going Local is produced by Independent Music NZ and made possible by NZ Music Commission, Merlin, APRA AMCOS, NZ On Air and a Recorded Music NZ Music Grant.
