beatBread offers a new way for independent/unsigned artists to fund their career development, while retaining ownership of their masters. They provide advances on streaming income for both catalog and unreleased music and give artists the complete choice of their distribution, marketing and promotional partners. beatBread also works with independent labels, to fund their development, as well as distributors and artist service companies to provide “white-labelled” funding to artists they work with.

Demo Presentation Period: 30 minutes followed by a question period Round Table chat with speakers Peter Sinclair and Matthew Tilley.
