Czech Publishers Association

The Czech Publishers Association (ČUV) is a professional organisation for publishers of digital and print media in the Czech Republic. It represents 43 members, 400 print magazines and newspapers, and over 200 titles published online. Printed titles are read by over 77% of the Czech population. Members’ web-based titles make up the vast majority of content published online in the Czech Republic. Member organisations employ over 5,000 workers and the publishers’ titles make up a large share of the significant advertising campaigns in the Czech media market. The Association is a member of EMMA (European Magazine Media Association), ENPA (European Newspaper Publishers Association), WAN IFRA (World Association of Newspapers) ,and FIPP (Federation International de Presse Periodical). To support the recognition of paper as an ecological means of transmitting information and content, the Association is a member of the international initiative Two Sides.

Music Industry Association

The founding of the Association was not only a response to the global crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, but also the establishment of a group with clear tasks for the future. The Association understands the music industry as composed of large, economically strong entities engaged in organising the largest mass events in indoor and outdoor locations. By metrics such as tickets sold, revenue generated, VAT remitted on ticket sales, and other indicators, it represents the largest grouping in the Czech Republic. As a platform, it is designed to be a dignified, sovereign partner with a strong mandate across all manner of negotiations, not only with the Czech government and the relevant ministries, but with all levels of public administration, up to and including entities not currently active in the Czech Republic’s entertainment industry. The Association strives to communicate its goals, processes, and views to the general public through active media engagement.
