Tuned Global is bringing fresh ideas and big conversations to SXSW 2026, with four powerful panels and workshops that explore the future of music technology — from AI agents and cloud infrastructure to social streaming and music licensing. All are now in the SXSW PanelPicker voting stage, and we’re inviting our community to help bring these ideas to the stage in Austin.
Please vote for us before 24 August.
What if you could build complex music tech simply by asking for what you need? This panel explores how AI agents — intelligent systems that understand plain language and coordinate tasks — could transform how we develop and manage music tech.
Cloud infrastructure might be invisible, but it’s quietly driving music tech transformation — from generative AI and personalised experiences to real-time fan engagement.
Niche platforms are redefining streaming with tipping, real-time chat, and fan communities. This panel explores how “social radio” could bring mainstream DSPs into the participatory era.
Music boosts engagement across industries — from fitness to gaming — but adding it legally requires the right technical setup, licensing, and reporting. This workshop gives you a practical roadmap..
