"I really love being a music publisher. At the end of the day, whatever play I’m making, if a Sony writer is involved, and that could be someone signed anywhere in the world, I’m doing something that’s good for them and their part of the equation; I’m doing my job. That leaves limitless possibilities for everything exciting that’s happening in music." — Katie Welle, SVP, Creative A&R for Music Business Worldwide (MBW)'s Inspiring Women series https://lnkd.in/eAmAwYPz

“We were brainstorming ways to work more closely together, and discussed Coke and IOC’s ambition to create an Olympic song,” Monaco says. “We chatted over the next few weeks and decided to test out some demos to share with the Coca-Cola team and the International Olympic Committee (IOC). I called Ryan Tedder because he is an amazing songwriter, and he and I have a solid track record working with some of the world’s top brands. We immediately started hashing out concepts for the song.” — Brian J. Monaco
