/ About this event
The future of music is being built BACKSTAGE - through the relationships among the people who rep talent, book shows, build tech, and back rising talent to fuel what comes next in event and music-tech.
Hosted by Gigwell (YC W16) at our Santa Monica headquarters, "No Guestlist" is a curated music-tech and industry mixer for artists, managers, agents, promoters/ talent buyers, founders building technology in music-tech and live events, and investors/strategic partners interested in the space.
Every attendee will receive one of four color-coded Backstage Passes—REP, BOOK, BUILD, or BACK—making it easy to find the people they came to meet and discover connections outside their usual circle.
Founders may be building across ticketing, creator tools, AI, fan engagement, rights, data, payments, touring, venue operations, event infrastructure, or other areas meaningfully relevant to artists and the greater music and live-events ecosystem.
Expect curated introductions and activations in our Gigwell Green Room, sponsor-provided libations and light bites, and surprise guest appearances/DJ sets as the night moves from industry mixer to backstage party.
REP the talent. BOOK the events. BUILD the tools. BACK what'snext. Come for the connections, stay for the vibes!
Attendance is limited, and applications will be reviewed to create a balanced and relevant mix of music and live-entertainment professionals, founders, investors, and emerging talent.
This event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
