The event DIGITAL FUTURE SERIES- FUTURE OF MUSIC is to give attention to musical composition in the television, film and broadcast industries. It will also consider all the business aspects, distribution and current technology environment. CCP will engage, inspire and equip local music individuals and companies to participate and succeed in development of future systems for music distribution and provide platforms for discussion and direct efforts between the US, Singapore and China. We will be planning the event on this subject during the week of the 2009 Asian Media Festival.

The event, which is pegged for December 2009, will have at least 4 tracks: Business, Rights Clearances, Future Technology and CCP/Singapore Cooperation.
