SAMANTHA ROBINSON

VP of neighboring rights /// Songtradr

Robinson, 38, manages neighboring rights throughout the world for Songtradr, with a focus on challenging markets like Latin America, where she says the company has been one of the most successful U.S.-based collection agencies for masters owners in that region over the past year. Robinson, who works with artists and labels to carve out and untangle their rights, says she is excited by Latin America’s growth in the music sector and how it is “becoming one of the most impactful regions in neighboring rights and audiovisual as a whole.”
