Pyramid Entertainment is currently at MIDEM, the world's largest music industry trade fair at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France. The entertainment company took the decision to be present at MIDEM this year, although not a part of the Barbados delegation, as the benefits from participation in the event over the years have proven to be innumerable and always provides new perspectives for furthering the company’s goal of bringing its artistes into mainstream music.

From January 23-27, the Pyramid contingent will be taking part in both MidemNet, which focuses on monetising music, and the main MIDEM exhibition. As MIDEM offers music professionals from across the industry the chance to network with potential business partners and identify new business opportunities, Pyramid’s representatives already have several meetings with agents and promoters lined up and will participate in several conference workshops including those on digital licensing and new media.

Started in 1967, MIDEM now attracts close to 9,000 of the world's largest music recording labels, agents, publishers, promoters, online and traditional distributors, live music professionals and artiste managers. This year’s key note line up includes a speaker session with Grammy award winning singer, songwriter and producer Pharell Williams and for the first time the tradeshow introduces the MIDEM Managers’ Village.
