    Goals / Remit

    Teosto manages the copyrights of music authors and promotes Finnish creative music. We make sure that our rightsholder members – i.e. composers, lyricists and music publishers – receive royalties when their music is used.

    We represent nearly 40,000 Finnish and around three million foreign composers, lyricists, arrangers and music publishers. Teosto has around 30,000 customers who use music: radio and TV companies, event producers, restaurants and other businesses and organisations.

    Teosto's vision is: We increase the cultural and commercial importance of music. Our goal is to ensure that Finland offers good conditions for working in the the creative industries and using music professionally.

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
