UNIVERSAL MEXICO HAS A NEW BOSS

Alfredo Delgadillo has been promoted to CEO and president of Universal Music Mexico. Managing director since 2017, Delgadillo will continue to lead Universal Music Mexico and add oversight of regional label Fonovisa-Disa to his responsibilities.

Based in Mexico City, he reports to Jesús López, chairman/CEO, Universal Music Latin America & Iberian Peninsula.

“Alfredo is an executive with extensive experience in all fields of entertainment, including records, management and touring,” López said. “He has incredible leadership capacity and a great track record of developing and integrating young executives into his teams. These are among the many reasons for his ongoing success at Universal Music Mexico. I wish him every success in his new mission. He has the support of our entire team.”

Delgadillo began his career at Universal Music Mexico in 1998 as an international marketing manager. In 2003 he joined EMI Music Mexico, where he was promoted in various areas of the business. After UMG bought EMI in 2013, he became GM of Universal Music México.

Under his leadership, the company has broken and expanded the global reach of such local artists as Mon Laferte, Lasso and Danna Paola and overseen innovative and creative strategies for UMG’s international acts. Delgadillo was also responsible for the development and consolidation of Global Talent Services to support live music and management in Mexico.
