If you’ve been paying attention to the music industry, one thing is clear: Triple G Ventures owns NAMM. Over the years, we’ve gone from showcasing cutting-edge brands to curating entire exhibits and now launching pitch competitions that define the future of music technology.

This is no accident. NAMM is where the best of the best in the music industry meet, and Triple G Ventures has made it our mission to bring next-gen innovation to the forefront. From debuting groundbreaking tech to giving entrepreneurs a stage to shine, we’re not just a part of NAMM—we’re shaping it.

2022: “Get Back” to NAMM

In 2022, we made a bold return to NAMM after two long years of disruption. Our interactive music technology innovation hub became the go-to space for creators and industry leaders alike.

We launched products that changed the game:

Artiphon’s handheld smart instruments redefining how music is created.

ASI Audio x Sensaphonics’ active ambient in-ear monitors, offering a fundamentally new experience for musicians.

BlackBT’s wireless pedal technology pushing the limits of creativity.

Moises.ai’s AI-powered app helping musicians remix, practice, and create like never before.

To make it unforgettable, Grammy-winning artist Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater joined us with jaw-dropping performances and hands-on demos that drew nonstop crowds.

Here’s what Gregg Stein, Triple G Ventures CEO, said at the time:

“It’s been a long 2 years, and it’s finally time to bring the music community back together. With brands like Artiphon, ASI Audio, Moises.ai, and BlackBT, we’re showcasing innovation that’s empowering creators and inspiring the next generation of musicians.”

It wasn’t just an exhibit—it was a movement.

2023: Innovating @ NAMM

If 2022 was about coming back strong, 2023 was about dominating. This year, we co-curated the INNOVATE@NAMM exhibit, transforming our space into the ultimate hub for creators, innovators, and industry leaders.

Our lineup featured 12 game-changing brands, including:

Ekwe – Turning music-making into a seamless blend of playing and learning.

Synthogy – Makers of the world’s most acclaimed virtual pianos.

Insoundz – Delivering crystal-clear audio by removing background noise automatically.

Riffler – An AI-driven app creating unlimited copyright-free guitar riffs.

SonicMind – Making analog gear programmable without losing the pure tone path.

Endlesss.fm – Multiplayer beatmaking for the TikTok era of music collaboration.

Paired with Jordan Rudess’s live performances, Music Tectonics podcast interviews, and collaboration with The MIDI Association and the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus, our space wasn’t just a NAMM exhibit—it was the heartbeat of the show.

Stein summed it up best:

“These brands are the future of music creation. From AI to Web 3.0, they’re making music creation more accessible, more inspiring, and more empowering. They’re turning creators into innovators and hobbyists into professionals.”

2024: Triple G Pitch Competition Takes Center Stage

This year, we’re not just showcasing innovation—we’re creating it. At NAMM 2024, we’re launching the Triple G Pitch Competition, the first event of its kind to spotlight the next wave of music tech entrepreneurs.

Here’s why this matters:

• Music tech is evolving faster than ever. From AI to pro audio to creator tools, the future is being written now.

• Entrepreneurs need a stage, and that’s exactly what we’re providing.

• It’s not just about products—it’s about the visionaries shaping the future of music.

The competition will take place on January 25, 2024, at the Anaheim Convention Center, giving creators, startups, and visionaries the chance to pitch their groundbreaking ideas to industry leaders, investors, and potential partners.

What’s the goal? To celebrate the best of the best in music tech, foster entrepreneurship, and give innovators the resources they need to scale their ideas.
