Technological Change and the Future of the Music Industry

Featuring Mitch Glazier, Chairman and CEO of the Recording Industry Association of America

Mitch Glazier is Chairman and CEO of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). RIAA is the trade association representing the U.S.-based global entertainment companies that are responsible for creating, manufacturing, or distributing approximately 85 percent of the world’s recorded music.
In his nearly 20 years at RIAA, Glazier has played a vital role in the music industry’s transition to streaming and “anywhere, anytime” access to music.
Before joining RIAA, Glazier served as Chief Counsel for Intellectual Property to the Judiciary Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives under Chairman Henry Hyde. In his career in and out of government, Glazier has worked on every major copyright bill considered in the past three decades from the Digital Performance Right in Sound Recordings Act of 1995 to the Music Modernization Act of 2018, laying the foundation for the modern streaming economy that has strengthened and remade the music business for the 21st Century.

Lunch will be served.
