All around the world, Music stands tall as one of the most lucrative Creative Arts and Showbiz sectors; with many musicians being amongst the wealthiest people in the world. Unfortunately, this trend isn’t the same in Ghana where the industry suffers from systemic issues stemming from an under -developed ecosystem and industry, which has led to a struggling industry with artistes who have not been able to fully commercially live off their craft. It is in this light that the 2021 VGMA festivities seeks to create a platform for national dialogue on issues pertaining to the development of an economically viable ecosystem whilst exploring relevant solutions and strategies towards industry growth.
The event is meant to engage Musicians, Music Producers & Managers, Distributors of Music, Music Promoters, Media and Other Industry Players nationally to discuss core industry issues. At the end of the dialogue, a communique on the insights, conclusions and recommendations collated from the discussions; will be presented to the Ministry of Tourism & Creative Arts for consideration.
