Everyone talks about being export ready. But what does that actually mean, and are we asking the right people?

Music export offices have long helped artists and professionals build international careers. Yet as the global music landscape evolves, so does their role. New initiatives continue to emerge, representing different regions, communities and approaches. Is this a sign that existing structures aren't doing enough, or proof that there is no one-size-fits-all model for music export?

Bringing together EMEE, BLACMEX, Sounds Australia and Faroe Music Export, this panel moves beyond what export offices can offer to explore what makes international collaboration truly effective. How can different export models complement one another? What does it take to build a successful partnership with an export office? Can export initiatives help tackle inequalities and strengthen entire music ecosystems, rather than simply support individual success stories? And who is ready to take on the increasingly complex, often invisible work of making international music careers possible?

Whether you're an artist, music professional, potential partner or aspiring exporter, join us to rethink what music export can achieve and what it takes to make it happen.
