BMG has announced that it will bring together key recording and publishing operations functions under the management of newly-promoted EVP Global Rights Administration Ben Katovsky. BMG Chief Financial Officer Maximilian Dressendoerfer said, “Operations are the engine room of any music company. As the rise of digital consumption continues to bring the previously separate operational functions of publishing and recording even closer together, having a single reporting line will generate significant benefits in terms of shared expertise and efficiency. I am delighted that Ben, one of our sharpest next generation executives, has agreed to take on this role.”<\/p>\n In publishing Katovsky will take on responsibility for BMG’s 60-strong, copyright registration, contract administration and integration teams, headed by SVP Global Copyright Gaby Urban. In recordings, he will now be responsible for the company’s 20-strong asset management, supply chain and integration teams headed by VP Asset Management & Supply Chain North America Nitsa Kalispera and VP Global Asset Management & Supply Chain Martyn Saville.<\/p>\n Katovsky joined BMG in April 2015 from technology provider Counterpoint, where he managed the BMG account since the company’s launch in 2008. He worked extensively with BMG on the commissioning and development of its operating systems and on the integration of key acquisitions. Most recently he took a key role in BMG’s supply chain review which saw the company reduce its number of distribution and licensing partners around the world from over 50 to just a handful.<\/p>\n Said Katovsky, “BMG continues to be a pace-setter for the music industry in the quality and efficiency of its operations. I am delighted to have the opportunity to help drive our innovations in this area and to take the service that we offer our clients to the next level”.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Source: BMG BMG has announced that it will bring together key recording and publishing operations functions under…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6274","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6274"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6274\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6274"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6274"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
The new structure embodies BMG’s drive to create the world’s first fully-unified international publishing and recordings company with both functions running off an integrated state-of-the-art platform worldwide. Katovsky was previously SVP Group Operations Strategy.<\/p>\n
