Event Description:

We’re proud to present The Future of Music: Where AI Meets Human Creativity, an inspiring conversation featuring two visionary leaders reshaping the global soundscape — Mansoor Rahimat Khan, co-founder of Beatoven.ai, and Alex Kochetkov, founder and CEO of Mubert.

Mansoor Rahimat Khan brings a rare blend of artistic mastery and technical innovation to the stage. A seventh-generation sitar virtuoso from India’s legendary Gwalior-Indore-Dharwad Gharana and a Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia honoree, Mansoor bridges centuries of musical tradition with the frontier of AI-driven composition. His work with Beatoven.ai harnesses deep learning to create mood-based, royalty-free soundtracks that empower content creators worldwide.

Joining him is Alex Kochetkov, the creative force behind Mubert, an AI-powered music ecosystem built by and for creators. Trained in both jazz and computer science, Alex has spent over a decade developing technologies that fuse art, data, and design. Mubert enables musicians and brands to generate limitless, royalty-free music streams — redefining how music is produced, distributed, and experienced in the digital era.

Together, they’ll explore how artificial intelligence is not replacing human artistry but amplifying it — creating a new paradigm where data becomes melody, code becomes rhythm, and creators around the world can collaborate across borders and genres.

Expected Outcomes for Attendees:

  • Understand how AI is transforming music composition, production, and licensing
  • Explore how traditional artistry and cutting-edge tech can coexist harmoniously ️
  • Learn how creators can leverage AI tools to expand creative possibilities
  • Discover new models for monetization and collaboration in the Creator Economy
