Introduction
Once again, the Government of Catalonia attends Womex with 17 Catalan companies.
The Government of Catalonia, through the Catalan Institute for the Cultural Companies (ICEC), has now attended Womex for many years, following the fair as it moved through cities such as Seville, Copenhagen, Thessalon-iki, Cardiff, Budapest, Santiago de Compostela and, now, Katowice, as it’s one of the focal points of the music industry. Our main aim is to help raise the visibility of the music sector in Catalonia through several international actions.
Womex has always been an important part on the international strategies for the promotion of the Catalan music industry and an excellent shop window for World Music bands from Catalonia, as well as for a great diver-sity of companies (management agencies, record labels, publishers, etc.) from our country.
Seventeen Catalan companies and institutions are attending this edition of Womex to be held in Katowice. Most of them are co-exhibitors at the Cata-lan Arts - Government of Catalonia stand (number 57 – 62).
We’d like also to recommend you the offWomex showcase that Txarango offers on October 28 (21:45h, International Congress Centre). Block-bust-ing chart-toppers bringing their Barcelona Sound to the world, Txarango mix Latin grooves, reggae and dub in an energy-laden show that has posi-tively uplifted audiences across four continents to date. On stage, their approach turns into pure feast and forcefulness. The message is clear: energy, joy and celebration. You can find in this booklet the contact details of their management, Èxits Produccions & Management. This showcase is possible thanks to the support of Catalan Arts - Government of Catalonia.
This booklet lists all 17 Catalan companies and institutions, and offers you some details about their activities, interests and delegates in Womex. Should you be interested in finding out more on a particular one, please do not hesitate to contact them directly, or turn to any of the ICEC’s offices in Europe – located in Barcelona, Berlin, Brussels, London and Paris –for further assistance
