Launched last year, the Jump.global Annual Summit serves as an end-of-the-year personal and professional development conference and retreat for the music industry. The conference brings together coaches and professionals to lead workshops, keynotes and panels on topics such as financial wellness, mental health, effective leadership and more.
More specifically, the summit does not list any speakers or attendees with their titles or company names on site, in line with the guidelines and description that “your first and last name matter more than your job title.”
“The summit is [provides] the rare opportunity to focus on executive development, rather than artist development,” says jump.global Founder Nick Miele. “We're very excited to be back for a second year and provide a safe space for everyone — whether you're a member of a band, longtime friends from your intern days, a consultant growing your business, an HR professional, or someone looking inspiration.”
