Oana Ruxandra is the Chief Digital Officer & Executive Vice President, Business Development at Warner Music Group. On this episode of the Welcome to the Metaverse podcast, we talk about how Warner Music have been one of the really early adopters and first movers in this space, embracing the metaverse, web 3.0 and the new opportunities that this shift will bring to artists and fans of music in all forms.
We cover their major partnership with The Sandbox as well as Genies and dive into how Oana and WMG are thinking about this whole space.
Oana was the perfect person for this episode. She painted the picture of how music and technology have always been intertwined throughout history and web 3.0 and the metaverse being the next iteration of this.
