Winter Music Conference announces first-ever virtual program for May 20-21

The first official Winter Music Conference virtual conference, WMCV, will feature Keynote Speakers Kevin Lin (Co-founder of Twitch), Tim Westergren (Cofounder of Pandora), Arabian Prince (NWA / Tech Entrepreneur), and Susan Paley (CEO, Droplabs) – More TBA.

In 2019 Miami saw the rebirth of one of its most iconic brands with the promise of a bright future. In 2020, the 35th anniversary of Winter Music Conference was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The music and live events industry faced a long year of uncertainty, but is now finally set to recover with events planned worldwide.
