UMG SPINS OFF GTS, REBOLLO TO HEAD STAND-ALONE

Universal Music Group has spun off its Latin agency, Global Talent Services, as a stand-alone company, with Narcís Rebollo as CEO and president.

The restructuring gives Rebollo oversight of GTS’s global operations, including management, booking, promotion and brand partnerships. The new entity will operate in eight countries, among them the U.S., Spain and Portugal. The Madrid-based Rebollo will report to Jesús López, chairman/CEO of Universal Music Latin America & Iberian Peninsula.

Since 2015, Rebollo, a native of Barcelona, has been president, Universal Music Iberian Peninsula, where he was responsible for recorded music and GTS' operations in Spain and Portugal. Prior to that, he served as managing director of independent EDM label Max Music and co-founded Vale Music, where his title was VP.

“I strongly believe that GTS is perfectly positioned to provide the best support for Latin artists around the world," Rebollo commented. "I would like to thank Jesús López for this opportunity and my entire team at Universal Music Spain and Portugal for sharing these exciting years alongside me as the company grew and evolved.”

Lopez added, “GTS was born with the purpose of being a full-service agency for artists, and the time has come for it to become an independent business unit within UMG. Narcís is without a doubt, the perfect leader to undertake the growth of GTS globally and I wish him much success in his new role.”
