Sony Music UK CEO Jason Iley to Receive Music Industry Trusts Award
Sony Music U.K. CEO Jason Iley will receive the 2024 Music Industry Trusts Award in recognition of his contribution to the British record business.
Iley, who was named head of Sony Music U.K. in 2014 following a brief stint as president of Roc Nation Records in New York City, will receive the award on Nov. 4 at a gala ceremony at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel. Previous recipients of the annual MITS award include Lucian Grainge, Ahmet Ertegun, Simon Cowell, Glastonbury festival founder Michael Eavis, Elton John and Bernie Taupin, Annie Lennox, Roger Daltrey, Rob Stringer, Emma Banks and broadcaster and DJ Pete Tong. In 2020, Iley was awarded an MBE(Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List for his contributions to music and charity — an honor that he called a career highlight “beyond any expectation I could have had.”
