How Big is the Slice of the Pie? Indies on the Growth powered by HAIL

Recent research discoveries show the blooming of the indies, getting a bigger slice of the pie against the majors, both physical and digital.

Panelists: Hannes Tschürtz (IFPI, INK Music), Ákos Fonyódi (Independent Label Fair, Independent Label Affair, Budabeats Records), Lana Čulig (Aquarius Records)
Hosted by: Zsolt Jeges (president of HAIL – Hungarian Association of Independent Labels)
