SPEDIDAM

SPEDIDAM is a copyright collective office in Paris that manages performance rights and ensures compensation flows to artists. The organization monitors how recorded performances are used in broadcast media, entertainment venues, and commercial settings across the country.

Five musicians founded the organization in 1959 to protect secondary rights from recorded performances. The initiative emerged from the need to ensure artists received additional income whenever their work was broadcasted or distributed through various channels.

The organization brings together performers from across France's entertainment world, including musicians, singers, dancers, and actors. You can observe how the institution connects different types of artists and recognizes their contributions to cultural life.

This is an administrative office focused on managing artist rights rather than a public venue open for sightseeing. For information about the organization or to inquire about services, it is best to visit the official website or contact them directly by phone or email.

The organization represents more than 115,000 registered performers, making it one of Europe's largest networks for connected artists. This system allows even lesser-known performers to benefit automatically whenever their recordings are used anywhere.
