Stephen Glicken is the CEO and co-founder of Project Admission, a live entertainment solution platform that provides tools to help the live events industry capture the full value of every ticket. With over 20 years of music industry experience, Glicken created Project Admission as a tech solution designed to work with live events to help expand how they are able to strategically implement their ticketing services. Project Admission works with over 50 professional sports teams and existing ticketing companies to provide critical tools and functionalities, including sales solutions, data collection and real-time reporting.

Before founding Project Admission, Glicken led business development at Songkick, the world’s leading live music discovery service that also, for years, empowered artists to sell tickets directly to their fans. While there he worked with artists like Paul McCartney, Adele, Kenny Chesney and Metallica to sell tickets in 70 countries worldwide.

A musician himself, Glicken spent the early part of his career as an audio engineer in recording studios, working with artists like NAS and the Wu-Tang Clan. After a several year stint in Puerto Rico during which he ran a large venue and managed a globally touring reggaeton act, he co-founded and ran Green Owl Records, the first label developed to be environmentally sustainable, under the Warner Music Group.
