Monetize!

MW:M Live is the showcase festival of Most Wanted: Music, Berlin's festival for the music industry.


Most Wanted: Music is the biggest music business event in Berlin and an up-and-coming hotspot for music and creative industry experts from all over Europe.

MW:M is organised by the Berlin Music Commission. With Most Wanted: Music, the Berlin Music Commission is driving the development of the music and creative industries - by inspiring new ideas and business models, sharing the latest expertise and promoting networking and collaboration.


MW:M consists of the MW:M Convention, the Listen to Berlin: Awards and the international showcase event MW:M Live.

The motto of this year's MW:M is Monetise! It's about music, money and fair distribution.

With current record profits, how can the music industry ensure that everyone earns enough for their work and successes? Creatives, business owners and musicians today have countless technologies and strategies at their disposal to generate attention and growth.
