MUSIC BIZ TAPS ROSEN TO CHAT WITH SCOOTER BRAUN

D.C. Strategist and women’s rights advocate Hilary Rosen will conduct a Music Biz Conference Keynote Interview with Scooter Braun on 5/17 at the Omni Nashville Hotel. Braun will be receiving this year’s Harry Chapin Memorial Humanitarian Award.

“As a previous recipient of our Humanitarian Award, we can think of no one better to guide this important conversation with Scooter,” said James Donio, President of Music Biz. “They are both prime examples to be emulated in the years ahead.”

Rosen, former Chairman and CEO of the RIAA, is currently Co-Chair of the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund and Managing Partner of SKDKnickerbocker. She received Music Biz’s Humanitarian Award in 2003.

“Scooter is a man for these times,” Rosen said. “I am so impressed with the way he innovates and connects his entertainment business and his commitment to making our world a better place. We are going to explore what he’s learned about the best ways to bring philanthropic values to this business and to our community.”

The interview will conclude the Music Biz 2018 Awards Luncheon, during which Braun will receive the Humanitarian Award for his philanthropic mission at SB Projects, where he implements a charitable element into each company initiative at the intersection of music, film, television, technology, brands and culture.

In 2017, he organized the One Love Manchester benefit concert, which raised more than $22m for the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund, in the wake of a terrorist attack during an Ariana Grande concert at Manchester Arena in England. Three months later, Braun organized the star-studded Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Relief telethon, which raised over $64m for victims of Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria.
