“One of the main goals this year for Captify Australia’s fast growing business has been to bring together industry folk into communities with shared passions – and this event truly lives up to that. We’re very grateful to our partners and can’t wait to bring the media folk of our industry an epic night,” said Krish Raja, managing director at Captify Australia.
“We are very fortunate in Melbourne to have such a friendly and collaborative industry across tech, media and agencies. The Media Mixer was born from the opportunity to dial up this connection to kick off summer and showcase some of the lesser known musical interests and talent from within our industry,” said Dan Kearney, Melbourne market lead at Captify.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to be part of this incredible collaboration between Captify, Spotify, and UnLtd for the first-ever Melbourne Media Mixer event. This is a true celebration of our industry’s collective power to support a cause we deeply believe in and throw an epic party. Musicians Making a Difference are doing exceptional work, and we’re honoured to contribute to their mission,” said Jacinta Dwyer at Spotify.
At Spotify, music is at the core, and this event is a testament to their deep connection to the transformative power of music. Spotify is especially excited to showcase the hidden DJ talents from within our agencies, who will be taking the stage to spin an unforgettable night of beats.
