The Pulse Of The Industry Founded in 1901, “NAMM” stands for the National Association of Music Merchants, although, since its inception, has evolved from a national retail association into an international association whose members now include commercial companies, distributors, affiliates and manufacturers. With business at the top of the agenda, the Show welcomed over 2,000 exhibiting member companies, representing 7,000 brands. Realigned member badge allocations to ensure an enhanced professional attendance resulted in a more focused business experience with a slight increase in attendees and achieved a targeted year-over-year increase of 14% in international participants recognizing the global importance of The NAMM Show. Attendees were an invited mix of industry professionals including domestic and

international retail and distribution buyers and employees, exhibitors, event tech and pro audio buyers and professionals, media, artists, invited guests and The NAMM Foundation GenNext (college music students), Music Education Day (school music administrators and buyers) and Nonprofit Institute (NAMM grantees and affiliates) participants. Positioned as the first show of the calendar, the strong turnout of domestic and international buyers and distributors points especially to the importance placed on The NAMM Show to see the latest products and brands available, and the excitement of when the industry gathers together: “For four days, the center of the music universe is right here at The NAMM Show where we’re connecting with our top customers and artists,” stated David Glaubke of HARMAN Professional Solutions. “This continues to be the premier event to launch products that will shape how music is made, performed and recorded for years to come.” The mixture of professionals and exhibitors from all aspects of the Crossroads welcomed new opportunities and meetings that can only happen when the industry gathers together. For first-time international exhibitor, Josefina Daly of Tierra Audio, the Show presented a plethora of new opportunities: “There’s an incredibly interesting group of people that we’ve met. Yesterday, I was talking to a leading studio producer who invited us into his studio to try the device with his current system. And then, a television producer came to talk to us about his show and our product. It’s such an exciting opportunity for us to meet so many different people.” The association’s other show, Summer NAMM, takes place in the Summer in Nashville, Tennessee, at the newly constructed Music City Center. Summer NAMM is approximately one quarter the size of the NAMM Show in January and focuses more on industry meetings and professional development than products. NAMM is also a not-for-profit association with a mission to strengthen the $17 billion music products industry. NAMM is comprised of approximately 10,300 members located in 104 countries and regions. NAMM events and members fund The NAMM Foundation’s efforts to promote the pleasures and benefits of music, and advance active participation in music making across the lifespan.
