Global Verse: Music & Culture Summit
MEX25 CELEBRATES 15 YEARS OF INFLUENCE AND INNOVATION
25 October 2025
Fire & Ice! Hotel, New Church Street,
Cape Town
Now in its milestone 15th year, MUSIC EXCHANGE (MEX) returns with a powerful and timely theme: Global Verse: Music and Culture Summit — a one-day event focused on how creatives can comprehend, compete and thrive in the rapidly evolving entertainment economy of 2025.
Taking place on Saturday, 25 October at the dynamic Fire & Ice! Hotel in Cape Town, MEX 2025 is set to once again be the country’s most significant platform for dialogue, development, and direction in the creative industries.
Global Verse will bring together leading voices from across the arts, media, tech, law, and policy to explore the realities and opportunities facing musicians, authors, producers, broadcasters, podcasters, and all cultural practitioners. This is the conference where ideas meet industry.
WHY ATTEND?
Strategic Insight from Industry Leaders
MEX continues its legacy of hosting acclaimed speakers and practitioners who offer not only global perspectives but real, actionable advice. From understanding live performance ecosystems to navigating the digital and streaming landscapes, MEX is grounded in the now and the next.
Unlock New Revenue Streams
From royalties to rights management, MEX 2025 will shine a light on the income avenues many creatives overlook. Sessions will break down the recently enacted Copyright Protection Amendment Bill, providing practical guidance on how to protect your work and get paid.
A Crossroads of Culture and Commerce
Whether you’re an emerging artist or an industry veteran, MEX offers access to knowledge, networks, and new markets. The event brings together legacy and innovation to strengthen South Africa’s creative economy from the inside out.

“The forum that MEX provides, serving as a catalyst in the entertainment world, is integral to the future well-being and prosperity of our entertainment industry—both nationally and internationally.”
