NORDIC MUSIZ BIZ TOP 20 UNDER 30

Nordic Music Biz’ Top 20 Under 30 is one of NOMEX annual initiatives, to highlight 20 young forces driving the the world’s 6th largest market for recorded music, The Nordics, forward.

From global superstars including Sigrid, Zara Larsson, Sigur Rós, Mø, Alma, and Kygo, to the most revered international hitmakers including Stargate, Max Martin, and Alan Walker, Nordic music continues to dominate the charts worldwide. A vital part of the rise of Nordic pop culture and global influence are the teams behind the scenes, and especially the young forces who bring new perspectives, ideas and business models to an ever-changing industry.

The winners of the Nordic Music Biz Top 20 Under 30 are chosen based on company growth, career path, recognition in the industry, influence in the industry in the previous years, artistic development, innovation, concert revenues, sales, streaming, campaigns, radio and television publicity. The selected 20 will be awarded a diploma during a ceremony at by:Larm Festival, one of the most important festivals for Nordic music industry, taking place in the centre of Oslo, Norway.
