jump.start - a gathering for self-starters in the music business

(New York, NY) Moderator / Companies evolve and job titles fade, but the legacy tied to your first and last name outlasts them all. It’s the legacy we’re all building, and it’s why jump.global is bringing together NYC’s most dynamic entrepreneurs, innovators, and independent minds in music, tech, marketing, legal, and beyond. Whether you’re freelancing, between gigs, building something new, or just figuring it out — you’re not alone. Together, we’ll get real about what it actually takes to launch your own thing — the mindset, the money, the mistakes, and the magic. Expect honest convos, practical insights, and a room full of people who just get it. You’ll walk away feeling a little more clear, a little more connected, and a lot more capable.

All Access Fest: Your Own Company, Your Own Legacy!

(Virtual) Panelist / We always find ourselves talking so much about applying to work at companies or idolizing what someone else has built and wanting to be a part of it. All that is completely fine – but have you ever given thought to the world of entrepreneurship and starting your own business? It may not always be top of mind but can be incredibly rewarding and fulfilling to the legacy of your first and last name. Building something from scratch can be a difficult process, but beautiful at the same time, so we brought together some incredible entrepreneurs to give it to you straight.
