PMLL ARM 2025

This year’s MPA Group Annual General Meeting brought together members from the MPA, PMLL and MCPS for a packed day of updates, discussions, and connections. The day started with the Printed Music Licensing Ltd (PMLL) Annual Rightsholder Meeting.

It was great to see so many PMLL members in the room for the session, which featured updates from across the team. Phillip Flood, Chair of the PMLL Board, opened the meeting with a warm welcome and a reflection on PMLL’s progress over the past year. Paul Clements, CEO of the MPA Group, then followed with an in-depth operational and licensing update, including key data and milestones, with forward-looking insights into our priorities for the year ahead, with Viki Smith, PMLL Managing Director and Steve Burton, MPA Group Chief Operational Officer, available to answer any questions.

The session offered a valuable opportunity to reflect on both the achievements and the ongoing work within PMLL, from data collection initiatives to technology updates, with contributions and questions from members in the room a welcome part of the conversation, both during and after the meeting.

After a full day of meetings across different MPA Group memberships, staff and members came together at The Prince of Wales pub for some well-earned refreshments and informal chats, a great way to round off the day.

Thanks to everyone who attended this year’s ARM and AGM, as well as all those who contributed to another successful year of supporting Publishers’ rights.
