Sony Corp‘s music division is made up of three parts: (i) Recorded Music; (ii) Music Publishing; and (iii) ‘Visual Media & Platform’.
‘Visual Media & Platform’ is often committed from MBW’s calculations about Sony’s music division because it doesn’t directly compare with the music divisions of other major music companies (for example, Universal Music Group).
‘Visual Media & Platform’ primarily covers mobile games and animation projects.
Each year, Sony Corp publishes figures that reflect its latest FY (ending March).
One of those figures is the firm’s global music division’s total employee base, which includes Recorded Music, Music Publishing, and Visual Media & Platform.
This employee base includes employees in Japan and in all other Sony territories globally.
You can see the latest visual representation of these figures below.
