Founder, Jeremy Weiss had this to say about the forthcoming event:
“LAUNCH Music Conference & Festival has grown into a known, highly anticipated Conference & Festival, nationwide, and 2017 will not disappoint!  With The Entertainment Institute directing the educational and networking program, the Conference programming is current, relevant, and applicable.  Through our carefully selected panelists and instructors, the acquired knowledge and networking opportunities are can’t-miss.  The nighttime Festival portion is a BLAST, chock full of non-stop performances by over 200 original artists, across all genres, over 3 nights.  We can’t WAIT to unveil these programs in the coming months, and we can’t WAIT to see you at LAUNCH 2017!”
