Making Vinyl Details
B2B conferences and networking platform dedicated to the rebirth of the global vinyl manufacturing business. The inaugural event was in Detroit Nov. 6-7, 2017 at the Cadillac Book Westin and attracted nearly 300 media professionals. The inaugural ‘Making Vinyl' attracted delegates from literally around the world, 17 countries, including Mexico, Canada, U.K., France, Germany, Spain, China, Japan and New Zealand, in which professionals engaged in some aspect of the vinyl value chain networked face to face. Representatives of vinyl pressing plants finally were able to meet in person their PVC suppliers, mastering engineers, packagers, printers, and record label clients. Independent retailers reinforced that shrink-wrapped 12"x12" product is indeed flying off the shelves.Keynoters hometown Detroit hero Jack White and rap pioneer Darryl "DMC" McDaniels regaled a packed ballroom how vinyl changed their personal and professional lives.WE'RE JUST GETTING STARTEDWhat a unique opportunity that has presented itself. The only bright spot for physical media in the digital age, vinyl's resurgence in 2017 caps a decade of double-digit growth that Deloitte estimates to currently generate $1 billion in associated (i.e., record and turntable) revenue. It defies every sensible rule of technological advancement and economics.Not bad for a format that not long ago was considered dead and buried, yet it obviously never went away, thanks to audiophile, oldschool deejays and collectors. But Vinyl 2.0is not your father's record business. Today, a brand-new pressing sells for an average of $25.Yet, the vinyl revival is only getting started, and so is 'Making Vinyl' as a continuing franchise. We welcome your proposals and input as partners, sponsors and participants in future 'Making Vinyl' events.
