Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our intended outcome for the 2018 Minnesota Music Summit is to bring together 1000 artists, fans and members of the music industry together in Saint Paul for three days of workshops, networking and performances. As a result, we hope that 65% of participants will have gained new knowledge, discovered new artists and made more contacts in the music and arts community. We will track attendance of workshops, networking events and performances and measure activity through comments on our website and social media pages. After the conference, we will provide written surveys to participating artists after the Summit is over and will host a meeting with the MMC staff and Board of Directors as well as partnering organizations to assess our successes and shortcomings and improve future programs.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Although attendance was 700 (rather than the anticipated 1000) due to the storm, we are pleased that 87% of those who did come said they had an "excellent" or "good" time and thought the programming was of high quality. The most common feedback was that it provided valuable access to industry knowledge, helped them make new contacts in the music/arts community and exposed them to new artists.
