NASHVILLE, TN, March 06, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The CEO and Co-Founder of Jammber was selected to speak at the Digital Innovation in Music Summit on February 26 to discuss how increasing sales and engagement can be as easy as making a few small changes in paperwork and payment processing. Cobb joined other industry leaders at the Summit, including speakers from Spotify, Warner Music Group, SoundExchange and more.
This Summit was an opportunity for attendees to discuss the future of the music industry during two days of interactive learning & networking. Topics included: Access vs. Ownership, Social Sharing & Exposure, Global Mobile and Marketing, and Music Licensing. One topic that echoed across discussions was the issue of music credits and payments.
"There is currently no efficient way to track music rights, ownership or payments globally. This is absurd," noted Benji Rogers, CEO & Founder of Pledge Music. This ongoing issue causes problems with rippling effects, not the least of which is the declining musician interest due to the difficulty of getting paid.
Jammber is digitizing the payment and paperwork processes used by music professionals, along with simplifying project management, payment tools, and team workflow. But most importantly Jammber tracks the invaluable credits that drive payments from the very beginning of the process. Those credits, in turn, provide opportunities for artists to build recognition for their work by capturing data from the creation of a song. This metadata makes it easy for every contributor on a single song to know what payments they are owed. David Blutenthal, CEO & Founder of Moodsnap, stated at the summit, "I wish I could go to Spotify and search the producer and writer of a song. I'm excited for Jammber to make that happen."
Jammber collects and organizes project data in one convenient place, without infringing on the creative process. Keeping the artistic method in mind when creating technology for artists is extremely important, explains Cobb. Jammber kept the artists in mind when they realized that data from these services could power a streaming platform and talent search portal, providing independent talent providers with opportunities for revenue-generating projects. At Jammber the focus is on "vision" and "art." Jammber strives to enrich the lives of people in the entertainment industry by giving them technologies that empower and enhance the creative process by becoming the global leader in facilitating payments and metadata, simplifying project management, automating paperwork, and centralizing all data related to creative works.
Jammber is the premier team workflow and payment automation platform for the entertainment industry whose mission is to enrich the lives of people in the entertainment industry by providing technologies that empower and enhance the creative process. Jammber places itself at the intersection of commerce and data for the music industry as an online platform which optimizes the team projects, paperwork and payment aspects of the business.
