What we’re about
Welcome to the Berlin MusicTech Meetup. A meetup for all music tech enthusiasts in Berlin.
This Meetup group is meant for those who seek to learn more about how the technology-driven music ecosystem is about to change.
Music technology has shaped the way how we create, distribute, promote, consume, and monetize music. Whether you are a software developer, maker, designer, researcher, artist, or just someone who is interested in how technology can help your music to evolve, you are in the right place.
The Berlin MusicTech Meetup is here to facilitate networking and partnership opportunities. Our events are open to everyone and serve as an opportunity to meet like-minded people in the real world, exchange thoughts and experiences, get inspired by presentations from music tech innovators, and discuss ideas and test prototypes for tomorrow's music ecosystem.
We look forward to having you as a member of our Meetup group. Please feel free to spread the word with other like-minded people.
We only send emails that are event-related.
If you're interested in demoing your prototype or product, please send us a DM.
The Berlin MusicTech Meetup is a not-for-profit event but we look forward to partnering with your brand if you would like to support us. For Sponsorship opportunities please email: [email protected]
