Welcome to a webinar Music360 for music professionals, on Thursday, January 22, from 1:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. GT Musiikkiluvat Oy, owned by Gramex and Teosto, are involved in organizing the webinar.

IndieCo, the association of independent record and production companies in Finland, will honour the 2025 winners at the Indie Awards 2026. The awards will be presented on Thursday 5 February 2026 at Helsinki Tiivistämö.

Gramex will pay four royalties to music performers and producers in 2026.

According to the 2025 customer and stakeholder survey, Gramex customer satisfaction has remained unchanged. The Gramex Customer Satisfaction Index (NPS) in the survey, which ended in early October, was 43 points, exactly the same as last year's survey. Customers praised the smooth customer service and reliability, among other things.

At the beginning of January 2026, Gramex's client agreement will be updated by decision of the general meeting. The agreement for both music performers and producers will change Gramex's rights to license the use of music. New licensing areas include the use of music as background music for podcasts and the possibility to sell licences to libraries, archives and museums for the use of sound recordings and music videos that have been withdrawn from commercial distribution and thus considered “out of commerce”. The customer may choose to exclude the new areas from their contract.

In the second project of the endeavour, system interfaces were designed and continuous ISNI processes established. The project participants were the Finnish copyright management organisations Gramex, Kopiosto, Kuvasto, Sanasto and Teosto. The project was coordinated by the National Library of Finland, which serves as the ISNI registration agency for Finland. The effort resulted in a vision document entitled 'ISNI in Finland in 2035', outlining the objective for ISNI operations.
