Hot take
GRAMMO is a collective management organization in Greece that protects the intellectual property rights of music producers and record companies. As one of the founding members of GEA (alongside ERATO and APOLLO), it works to collect and distribute reasonable remuneration fees to rights holders. GRAMMO operates under the supervision of the Hellenic Copyright Organization (OPI) and the Ministry of Culture and Sports, ensuring compliance with Greek copyright law. Their collaboration with GEA has created a unified system for managing neighboring rights in Greece, with tools like GEABOX modernizing the tracking and collection process. However, like many collective management organizations, GRAMMO's effectiveness depends largely on their ability to adapt to the rapidly evolving digital music landscape.
