20 ideas were pitched at Technopolis Ülemiste on Friday 23th of March, where Garage48 Tallinn Music 2012 was kicked off. Many of the ideas were focused on music and entertainment, 14 of them got the needed team behind to be able to start development.
Easyrider is a platform and tool for bands and event promoters/organizers to exchange technical riders before concerts and festivals. So far riders are sent via e-mail, fax or some other old-school format, but there is no easy to use and efficient communication channel. Easyrider is a cool service to save time, money and a lot of stress to the bands, promoters and technicians. Going global, from the start!
