A cross-section of leading minds from around the world will connect and interact on global musical issues and topic of trends in the music and culture industry, while creating a platform for engaging and networking in an atmosphere where potentials present in the African music industry and ways to harness its socio-economic gains will be critically analysed.

In addition, Adebisi A. Adedeji, Deputy Director, Development Finance, Central Bank of Nigeria; Udochi Muogilim, the Lead Partner, Price Water House Coopers; Yoel Kenan, who is the Chief Executive Officer, Africori in South Africa; and Eric Bally, Associate Producer of the biggest touring company in Europe, YUMA Production, will be there.
African music artistes who will be joining the panelist to share their experience from the music perspective include Salatiel, Ace Producer/Founder of Alpha Beta Records and 6th AFRIMA Nominee from Cameroon; DJ Moh Green, International DJ/ Producer and 6th AFRIMA Nominee from Algeria; and Kanvee Adams, renowned music artiste and 6th AFRIMA Nominee from Liberia.
Casmir, popularly known as Voombastic Uncle P, expressed his expectations at the summit: “I feel honoured to be a guest panelist at the Africa Music Business Summit of the 6th AFRIMA. 
“I will be speaking on the topic: ‘Music Business as relates to the GDP of Nigeria.’
“I will shed light on how music business can be of great benefit to our nation. 
“I’ve been a professional in the music industry with over 25 years of experience. 
“I welcome the rest of the world to join us in Lagos, Nigeria. 
“Come and feel African culture in stylish pattern.”
Also sharing his excitement, Dlamini added: “In relation to the theme of the summit, I will shed light on current distribution opportunities in Africa and what the future may look like. 
“As a professional with over 20 years of experience in the music business, from Europe, to the Middle East and Africa, I hope to share some insight that will bring value to your career and your role within the business.”
Participants will get the opportunity to engage in robust conversations on the economic viability and corporate benefits of the African music and arts industry.
