ABOUT UTOPIA

Music is incredible. But as an industry, it has been slow, complicated, and disparate. While the tech world has moved into the future, the music industry continues to be shaped by inefficient systems of the past. At Utopia we believe there is a better way. It is our goal to build a better world for music.

Since 2016, Utopia Music has developed an innovative big data technology that can track in real-time music consumption on radio, streaming and tv. Our technology tracks online music sources and translates them into meaningful music consumption reports for royalty collection. Our data will enable artists and music copyright owners to increase their revenues and to be paid faster. The solution we’re building does not threaten to usurp the role of industry incumbents. Rather, it promises to boost their cash flows, and those of the artists they support, forming a system that works to the advantage of all participants.

Our co-founders are seasoned technology serial-entrepreneurs. The management team has deep experience in running listed companies, working in the music industry, building tech companies as well as in finance. We have recently closed a major financing round and have a 40+ strong team in Zug and Stockholm.

Welcome to Utopia - Where Music Lives!
