As we focus on the future, “NARM Connects Physical … Digital … Mobile” will reflect on the convergence of physical, digital and mobile content delivery options within the music industry. Our Convention has always attracted the leaders in the music world, and for our 2009 event, we also have secured a number of new telecom, technology and digital participants, speakers and sponsors. We will be presenting some thought-provoking panel discussions with analysts and journalists who cover music and the digital space. And, for the first time ever, NARM is hosting live evening musical performances open to the public that showcase fantastic new music by established musicians, as well as up-and-coming artists. These events are called NARM@Night, and we expect them to generate excitement among attendees, as well as draw music fans to the performances.

The NARM Convention has always been the premier annual music industry event that is not to be missed. The Convention succeeds in bringing together all the key industries that affect the music business, including retailers, record labels, artists and content providers, as well as mobile, digital and technology companies. The NARM Convention connects industry leaders and experts for the purpose of building new partnerships and developing viable, creative solutions to keep our music industry strong.

In addition to NARM's long-committed members, you’re sure to see a host of new faces – and the opportunities they represent – at NARM Connects. Verizon Wireless and Nokia have joined the NARM Board to serve alongside current digital representatives from Amazon and iTunes. Audiolife, 7Digital, DashGo, Puretracks, Rhapsody, Zune, and others have also joined NARM in the past year, and new members from the online retail, mobile delivery and social media space are joining every week. These companies recognize that NARM is the place where content supplier community connects with the content delivery community to advance their common business goals.
