The following is the initial press release announcing partnerships, a new location, and what to expect from this year's event:
"Soundmit is the international trade fair specialized in electronic musical instruments and new audio technologies that takes place annually in Turin.
The event, with a history of eight ever-growing editions, hosted exhibitors from 11 countries in 2018, welcoming over 800 visitors and 170 operators in the field in the two days of the event.It has obtained the patronage of the Italian Trade Agency (www.ice.it), the Polytechnic of Turin, the Polytechnic of Milan, the University of Rome Tor Vergata, the DAMS of the University of Turin and ARDUINO.
In addition to the exhibition part, the programme includes the inclusion of workshops and training sessions in collaboration with major international schools and companies in the sector.
The programme is enriched with talks and panels with the sponsoring Universities and international guests of the sector.
Soundmit is also a chance for visitors to meet sector companies and apply for job opportunities. Engineers, software developers and graphic designers are currently among the most requested profiles in the music sector and the presence of universities and performers such as Arduino exponentially increases the possibilities of developments in this direction. Soundmit has also the support of 17 international media industry partners who will cover the event with articles, interviews and reports.
