The Arizona State University Popular Music program’s Music Industry Career Conference is set to provide students with exposure to exciting career opportunities, music professionals and industry executives.
Taking place in downtown Phoenix March 28–29, this year’s event will feature Grammy award-winning producer Timbaland as the keynote speaker, alongside a lineup of top executives, talent managers and industry pioneers.
The Popular Music program in ASU’s School of Music, Dance and Theatre launched the conference in 2023 as the first event of its kind in Arizona.
„We created MICC to be more than just a conference — it’s a career-changing experience,“ said Erin Barra, assistant professor and director of the program. „This is where real opportunities happen, and we’re excited to bring the best in the industry to Phoenix.”
The conference provides an immersive learning and networking experience, offering access to cutting-edge industry insights, career-building opportunities and exclusive live performances.
According to Barra, MICC is designed to bridge the gap between talent and opportunity, making Arizona a central hub for music business and creative innovation.
The conference will feature:
Stadium After Party sponsored by TIDAL: 5:30–11:30 p.m., Saturday, March 29
Early bird registration is now open. Visit the MICC website to register and learn more.
