One winner will be chosen in each by a panel of industry judges and VCs, but all the finalists will be invited to pitch their wares at the MidemNet show.
"MidemNet Lab is a great opportunity for music start-ups and apps developers to find new business partners in the music industry, to take their business to the next level and get noticed by investors," says Midem director Dominque Leguern.
Apps firm TuneWiki was showcased in this year's event, where it unveiled its yet-to-launch mobile music game. TuneWiki raised millions in Series B funding by investors in
the immediate aftermath of MIDEM 2010.
