Copyright at concerts: Greater clarity thanks to a new initiative
In future, anyone organising concerts in Switzerland should have a clearer understanding of to whom copyright royalties are to be paid. A parliamentary initiative aims to significantly restrict direct licensing for concerts, thereby safeguarding the collective management system operated by SUISA. For organisers, musicians, agencies and festivals, this is about far more than just administration. It is about legal certainty, predictable costs and the question of how music creators can be fairly remunerated in an increasingly fragmented market.
