	Name : Jamie Allen e-mail : jamiea@business-design-centre.com Biog Born to the sounds of Donny Osmond's Puppy Love back in '73, Jamie Allen obviously grew up with a somewhat disturbed taste in music (though he promises to have remedied this over the years). Suited and booted he joined a Mahavishnu/Madness soundclash band at 17, before discovering that his lack of rhythm was probably better suited to writing and DJing. Jamie graduated last year from a southcoast Institute with a degree in Cultural Studies, before doing reviews and interviews for local mags.

Exhibition / Sponsorship

One of the few survivors from the original team who set up the first London Music Week in 1996. Launch Publisher of Miller Freeman titles: MBI, and Studio Week. Formerly with Music Week, Billboard, Decca Records and CBS Studios. Also designs and hand crafts very fine stained glass windows for exhorbitant prices - and therefore an obvious choice to drive the exhibition sales initiative!

Managing Director of Business Design Centre

Name : Andrew Morris Biog Andrew is a man with a mission - to make London, and London Music Week, the centre of music business deals each year, every year. As the driving force behind this ambitious event, he thrives on a challenge and won't rest until he's reached his goal. 'With the UK historically creating between 20 and 25% of world music consumption, it's incredible that there hasn't been a London Music Week before now. But I suppose all great things are worth waiting for! ' enthuses Morris from his penthouse office above the impressive venue for LMW, the Business Design Centre. At 45, he is a product of the sixties but with three teenage children, and a youthful attitude to life, his thinking is pure 1998. He has been called a marketing guru, entrepreneur, control freak and egomaniac, but not, as he puts it, all at the same time or by the same person. One thing's for sure; once he makes up his mind, he has the commitment and resources to get the job done. London Music Week is yet another fine example of this true Brit's grit.

Conference Consultant
	Name : Martin Bercott Biog Conference consultant responsible for much of LMW 1997's conference programme. Felt compelled to sell his soul to music after working for British Aerospace for a number of years as a business strategist. When not working with LMW he provides strategy and planning assistance to record companies, artist managers and other music-based concerns. Tall, Scottish and good-looking.
