DOWNTOWN UPS THREE

Downtown recently expanded its business development and operations teams with three promotions.

Andrew Sparkler has been promoted to EVP of Global Business Development, and Bruce Lampcov to SVP of Global Biz Dev. Brad Yuan has been tapped for the newly created role of SVP of Global Operations for Downtown.

Sparkler oversees all new business opportunities for the company worldwide and its portfolio of brands, including acquisitions, catalog purchases, publishing agreements, digital partnerships, and performing rights strategy.

Lampcov, most recently served as Head of West Coast Business Development for Downtown Music Publishing, will take on an expanded global role as SVP of Global Business Development at the parent company level. Yuan will focus on building operational efficiency, accountability and alignment across the entire Downtown portfolio. Sparkler and Yuan are based in New York and report directly to Downtown Chief Operating Officer Andrew Bergman; Lampcov, based in Los Angeles, reports to Sparkler.

“Andrew, Bruce and Brad have each played critical roles in Downtown’s recent growth,” Bergman said. “Each of them bring essential skills and a commitment to excellence that are a model for our entire organization. I look forward to meeting them someday."
