This week we brought colleagues together in London and Edinburgh for our EOY staff meetings, sharing updates, reflecting on progress and aligning on what’s next.
We marked £99.8m distributed, celebrated DCS updates and the launch of our Generative AI Solution as we look ahead.
We recently spoke with Simon Hutson, the newly appointed Chief Executive of the @cla.co.uk, about how collective licensing helps turn large‑scale copying into royalty payments for freelancers and rightsholders, including those paid through DACS Payback.
CLA and Copyright Agency in Australia have expanded their partnership to include Generative AI Workplace permissions, the first AI-related IFRRO agreement. A new deal with Copyright Polska also brings Polish works into CLA licences.
