The event focuses on the rapidly evolving world of collecting societies and the crucial importance of collective rights management in ensuring royalty income for songwriters and composers.
BASCA said that many creators are confused by the international licensing process and digital copyright management, so the first part of the session will look at the role and functions of PRS for Music (PRS, MCPS, the Alliance) here in the UK plus how things differ in other territories, including North America and mainland Europe.
The session will also address how royalties flow back from digital services to creators and explains what songwriters and composers need to know, understand and do, to help this process. A panel of guest speakers will be on hand to answer any questions.
The session takes place on Tuesday 20 November from 6.30pm to 9.30pm at the PRS for Music boardroom, Berners Street, London. For more information, please visit http://www.basca.org.uk/news/basca-announces-the-final-pd-module-of-2012/.
