SACEM : THE 1ST MUSIC CMO EVER CREATED BY
AUTHORS, COMPOSERS AND PUBLISHERS IN 1851
From its beginnings, Sacem welcomed foreign composers
such as Verdi and Wagner.
Founded in 1851 under the Second French
Republic, SACEM (Society of Authors, Composers
and Publishers of Music), is a non-profit non-trading
entity owned and managed by its members
according to the business model of a cooperative.
And after 170 years, Sacem ranked as #1 CMO in
terms of collections, for the 6th consecutive year.
