MPA Seminar: The Global Business of Music Publishing
Globally music publishing is worth around £3bn. With some established markets entering decline and new developing markets coming online it has never been more crucial to understand the sector from a global perspective. This seminar is designed to equip attendees to do more and better business around the globe.
Jenny Goodwin received the prestigious MPA Gold Badge at the MPA Christmas Lunch on 16 December. The Award is in recognition of her outstanding contribution during ten years as the MPA's Assistant Chief Executive.
The business of music publishing is concerned with developing, protecting and valuing music. Music publishers play a vital role in the development of new music and in taking care of the business side, allowing composers and songwriters to concentrate on their creative work.
The MPA has around 260 members, representing nearly 4000 catalogues, covering every genre of music. They include all of the UK’s major music publishers, independent pop publishers, classical publishers, library music publishers and also printed music publishers.
