Family in Music and GlobalPass AG Partner on ID Verification
GlobalPass AG, the global identity verification and authentication provider, today announces a partnership with Family in Music, the Finland-headquartered start-up founded by Finish music industry entrepreneur and executive chairman Juka Hynynen. Alongside Juka, is Kevin Bacon, award winning producer and entrepreneur who is Chief innovation Officer. Kevin co-founded AWAL in 2004 which forever changed the music business landscape by offering deals to artists without them giving up their rights. Tim Delaney, formerly a key member of U2’s management team, is Managing Director. Over the last years, Delaney – also a label veteran of Island, Mercury, RCA, Arista and J Records in the US, UK, Australia, and Asia – has been involved with a variety of music tech start-ups.
Family in Music is building a new music creator network that will revolutionize the way creators work and get paid with the aim to help protect the revenue and rights of songwriters.
