About the General Members’ Meeting
Each year, BumaStemra organizes a General Members’ Meeting (GMM). As a member of Buma or affiliate of Stemra, you can think along and discuss the future of the organization.
The General Members’ Meeting is a private meeting that is only accessible to our members and affiliates.
What’s on the agenda?
Prior to the General Assembly, the agenda will be shared via MijnBumaStemra. The agenda typically includes topics such as:
- The (re)appointment of directors/members for the Board of Directors (RvB), Council of Members (RvR), Supervisory Board (RvT) and Buma Cultuur
- Amendments and additions to the articles of association and regulations
- Questions submitted by members
- Approval of the minutes from the previous General Members’ Meeting
- Financial statement
Sharing knowledge and networking
The GMM is also a great opportunity to catch up on developments in the music industry that affect you. It also gives you the chance to ask us questions and engage with fellow music creators.
In brief: What do the RvR, RvT and RvB do?
The Counsil of Members (RvR) represents all members. This council discusses with BumaStemra what is on the minds of music creators and publishers, considers improvements to the organization in your interest, and provides both solicited and unsolicited advice based on the specific knowledge and expertise of its members.
The Supervisory Board (RvT) oversees the policies of the Executive Board and the general course of affairs. It also provides professional and independent advice to the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors (RvB) is responsible for the overall and day-to-day management, operations, and results of the organization.
