Description

For over two decades, the music industry has struggled to answer three deceptively simple questions:
What do we own? Where is it? Are we making money from it?

Edward Ginis, co-founder of OpenPlay and Proto Hologram, shares how OpenPlay evolved from a bold internal project at Concord into an industry-standard platform, breaking down decades of data dysfunction and giving rights holders real control over their IP. 

From building enterprise tech in a slow-moving industry to parenting four kids while launching a second startup (Proto) in the middle of a pandemic, Edward brings an unfiltered look at the personal and professional highs and lows of entrepreneurship.

This is for music professionals, technologists, and founders navigating complexity, scale and real life.
