Fred Bolza - Broadcast & Online Development Director, MCPS-PRS-Alliance

Fred’s role is to support the development of effective schemes for licensing music in the digital age by constantly monitoring the ways in which music is made, distributed and consumed as well as how the underlying business models can work together in the context of convergence.

Prior to joining the Alliance one year ago, Fred worked for 7 years as a management consultant advising ISPs, mobile operators and media companies on strategy.

His interest in music is not just professional as he currently DJs a monthly jazz night, writes about obscure records and used to be in Canadian garage punk “sensations”, The Cryptics.
