NERI TO LEAD IVORS ACADEMY

Veteran music publishing exec Roberto Neri will take over as CEO of The Ivors Academy, replacing interim CEO Charlie Phillips. He starts 4/15.

Ivors Academy Chair Tom Gray said Neri “brings a huge breadth of industry experience, knowledge and leadership skills. His commitment—and ours to him—is to be the most influential voice for songwriters and composers in the world."

Neri was most recently CEO of the publishing arm of Believe and previously chief executive and COO of Utopia Music Services, EVP and head of business development at Downtown Music and VP of international at Bug Music.

He has served on a range of industry boards, including roles as chair of the Music Publishers Association and director of UK Music, PRS for Music, MCPS and PPL/PRS.
