Established in 1947, GEMA represents over 80,000 composers, lyricists, and music publishers worldwide. In 2022, the company’s revenues totaled EUR 1.178 billion.ChallengeGlobal social media, music and video platforms such as Instagram, Spotify and YouTube have given niche artists the chance to be heard by millions of people, and have made some of them stars practically overnight.
