Discover how Live Nation’s NextGen Nation program provides employees globally with a one-of-a-kind opportunity to grow as leaders.
The NextGen Nation program brings together groups of 30-45 emerging leaders from different teams across the Live Nation organization to collaborate and develop their leadership skills. Powered by Live Nation’s School of Live, the NextGen Nation program is made up of in-person learning sessions, compelling guest speakers, independent studies and a group capstone project. This program helps participants develop into tomorrow’s leaders and industry rock stars of the future. The program expanded to a more global reach bringing together North American and EMEA participants with the most recent cohort that launched in Amsterdam in April this year.

The NextGen Program is unique in that it offers professional development on a global scale. For the capstone projects, in which employees are placed into groups and must develop a new product or process for development for Live Nation, participants are matched with people across many teams globally. Through teamwork, creativity, and cooperation, this program allows our brightest minds worldwide to learn from each other and build on their experiences to drive innovation.
