3. Music Matters is the pioneer music industry
event in the Asia Pacific region that gathers
the most influential figures in the global
music scene.
Topics addressed in 2015 included the
growth potential in Asia’s developing
markets and their unique music scenes, live
music and touring, the vast differences in
business models and diverse rates of digital
adoption. The conference also included an
afternoon dedicated to synchronisation of
music in other entertainment mediums,
such as TV shows and gaming at Sync
Summit Matters.
Delegates were treated to performances by
Jeremy Loops (South Africa), Spender
(Australia), Seth Haapu (New Zealand),
Sezairi & Tulus (Singapore & Indonesia)
and Bastian Baker (Switzerland).
The business ecosystem for online video has
exploded in Asia in a matter of months with
new platforms, creators, producers,
aggregators and brands coming online every
day. Video Matters: Behind the Streams
immersed attendees into the business of
video content marketing and influencer
strategy.
Produced in association with the YouTube
FanFest, Video Matters provided attendees in
the creative community an insider's
knowledge into the Asian video business
ecosystem.
Whether it’s sport, music, arts or corporate
entertainment, the Live industry in Asia is
booming.
New, multi-billion dollar entertainment
complexes are opening all over the region.
More brands are sponsoring. Digital platforms
are broadcasting more events to a wider
audience than ever before. Interactive
technologies and social marketing innovations
are creating experiential audience
engagements that connect content owners to
more potential ticket buyers and corporate
attendees.
So we think that it’s remarkable that very few
opportunities exist to share best practises and
discover new tech innovation within the large-
scale corporate and consumer live
entertainment ecosystem.
The Asian Sponsorship Association (ASA) was
founded in 2014 to transform sponsorship
practices and grow the business sector in
Asia. ​Headquartered in Singapore, the ASA is
an independent organisation that offers
services benefits and community to both the
buy and sell side of the marketing industry in
the region as well as agency intermediaries.
Sponsorship Matters presented by
Sponsorium kicked off its conference
discussing the importance of sponsorship in
this dramatically changing age of
engagement. This paved the way for further
debate on how to use sponsorship to build
long-term value for brands, what makes up a
sponsorship deal, what’s new in engaging
social media, gaming and other digital
applications and stating a case for
measurements, metrics and ROI. Finishing off
the day was a lesson in understanding how to
activate sponsorship and a solid
brainstorming session.

8. Did it Matter?
All That Matters was the best I have experienced in
the last many years that I have been to. Live Matters

completed the program.

Thanks for building such a great scene where I can
connect with the entire region in one place.
The event was a real eye opener. I met so many
people and understand so much more about the
complex region of Asia. I cannot thank you all enough
for the opportunity. I'm still buzzing about the week!
This was my first visit to Music Matters in Singapore. I
was impressed to find the most influential players in
the Asian music business gathered together with some
of the major characters of the international scene to
exchange ideas with young artists and entrepreneurs.
