What It Is
Every content industry, aligned on one rights-and-integrity-first position for AI.
A first-of-its-kind global summit bringing the leading practitioners and policymakers from every content industry together to align on a shared, rights-and-integrity-first position for AI.
Why Now
If the people behind the work don't set the defaults, someone else will.
AI is reshaping how content is created, owned and paid for. Without a coordinated position from the people whose work it's trained on, the defaults will be set for them, and against them.
Burnham, now Prime Minister and a former Culture Secretary, still represents Makerfield — part of a region with a long history of standing up for the people behind the music. He is convening the room: rights-holders, regulators, platforms, labels, broadcasters, publishers, and the AI labs themselves.
Art Is A Human Right
Art is a
Human Right.
What we
mean
mean
"Everyone who makes creative work has a moral and material claim on it: a right to be credited, and a right to be paid."
It's Beyond The Music's 2026 theme, Art is a Human Right, and the foundation of the Summit's position on AI.
