Big Hit Entertainment and Universal Music Group Strategic Partnership To Form New Label & KPop Boy Group

Previously on February 10, Universal Music Group and YG Entertainment announced that they have joined as equity investors with Big Hit Entertainment and Kiswe in VenewLive (digital live streaming platform).

On February 18, through a live broadcast on VenewLive, four companies’ leaders shared their new strategic partnership that predicts will re-write global-music history.

There are three points in Big Hit and UMG’s partnership. The first is creating the first global Kpop boy group in the U.S. Second, establishing a new label in Los Angeles, and the third is enhancing Big Hit’s technology platforms.

Furthermore, Big Hit will be in charge of discovering, training and developing new artists. They will also process the fan content production and manage the communication between artists and fans through the Weverse platform.

Meanwhile, UMG’s Geffen Records will be in charge of music production, marketing, and global distribution operations using their strong domestic network.
