In 2016 at the EDMBiz Conference in Las Vegas, Skylight launched the ambitious program entitled “Little Empire and Skylight: Promoting the Future Through Mentorship.” The program successfully paired those trying to break into the music business with top executives through personalized mentoring.
Each mentee was given time with each expert, allowing participants to be exposed to a wide range of topics pertaining to careers in the music industry.
Mentors who donated their time to the program included: Alexandra Greenberg (Senior VP, MSO PR), DJ/producer Christian Karlsson (Bloodshy/Galantis/Miike Snow), Geronimo (SiriusXM Senior Director of Programming), Randy Sosin (Insomniac Film & Video Production Senior Vice President), Ed Shapiro (Reed Smith, LLP Partner) and Stephanie LaFera (Little Empire Music Founder/Skylight Cofounder).
