“ This year, we have made a great deal of progress on a number of fronts, in particular with regard to innovation, new practices in the consumption of works and the strengthening of social protection for Sacem members. ”
Technology is changing increasingly quickly, and the ways in which works are created, exploited, and consumed are evolving. In this context, Sacem has proven that it can transform and adapt to better meet the needs of creators. The strength of its collective management model will enable it to accelerate its development in order to meet the issues and challenges of tomorrow, while capitalising on its very solid fundamentals.

Sacem helps to reinforce the social and professional status of its members through their creative activity and contributes to their ability to work and live in relative security. The aim is not only to provide assistance to the most vulnerable, but also to guarantee each member protection against the vagaries of life at every stage of his or her professional career.
Sacem’s Cultural Action is on a mission to support creation, dissemination, professional integration of creators, and artistic and cultural education. The projects supported have a common vocation: to bring creation to life in all its diversity.
To this end, Sacem offers creators, publishers and players in the industry a wide range of financial assistance and services to support them as best as possible as they carry out their projects, with a goal of helping them establish a lasting presence in their ecosystem.
