LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avex Entertainment Incorporated and AEG Presents announced today the formation of AEGX, a joint partnership. The venture utilizes the specific strengths and reach of each of the two companies to create unique international opportunities in both artist development and live entertainment.
AEGX will provide Avex with access to AEG Presents' worldwide portfolio of venues, festivals, and global touring partnerships to help expand the profile of its artists and brand across a global audience. Likewise, AEG Presents will be able to utilize Avex's resources and platform identity in Japan to provide international artists the ability to reach the Japanese audience, while simultaneously continuing the company's live-event expansion in the market. The partnership enables both parties to super-serve artists and audiences in an increasingly hyper-connected and borderless music ecosystem.
"This is really a perfect example of synergies being scaled for the benefit of global artist development, which is at the core of what we do," said Jay Marciano, Chairman and CEO, AEG Presents. "Partnering with Avex to launch AEGX gives both Avex and AEG Presents a path to create real opportunities for musicians who increasingly see the world as a borderless global community. I can't wait to see what we all do together."

Katsumi Kuroima, President and CEO of Avex, remarked: "We are very excited to announce the launch of AEGX with AEG Presents. Our companies both share the same goal with this new partnership: AEGX will serve music fans around the world by contributing to the global development of western artists, while also expanding the reach of Japanese artists beyond its borders. The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us of the positive power and limitless potential of music and entertainment. We are thrilled to take this stride forward together and look forward to the future."
The initial focus points for the new venture will be the co-promotion of AEG artists in Japan, the development of music festivals and venues in the market, and the promotion of global tours for Asian artists, including both artists signed to Avex and non-Avex artists.
