The agreement aims to take that to 100% over time. Financial terms were not disclosed.<\/p>\n<h2>Silverstein&#8217;s expanded role<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Brandon Silverstein<\/strong> is CEO of both Avex Music Group and S10. He will keep both roles and also serve as a board member and equity partner in Avex. His remit now widens to Avex&#8217;s global strategy across recorded music, publishing, live entertainment, touring and investments.<\/p>\n<h2>How the relationship developed<\/h2>\n<p>Avex acquired S10&#8217;s publishing catalog in March 2025, when Silverstein became CEO of Avex. Since then the company has signed Bruno Mars for publishing and launched a $100 million publishing acquisition program.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Katsumi Kuroiwa, CEO of Avex Inc.: \u201cS10 is an exceptional management company that is playing a key role in realizing our global ambitions. Bringing S10 into Avex reflects our confidence in Brandon\u2019s leadership and our commitment to growing Avex\u2019s global music business. Together, we will bring the full breadth of Avex\u2019s capabilities to artists and creators around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Silverstein: \u201cS10 began with a belief in exceptional talent and what we could build around it. I\u2019m proud of what our artists, songwriters and team have accomplished, and grateful to the partners who helped us get here. This next chapter is an opportunity to build on that work at a greater scale with Avex, investing in talent, developing new businesses, and creating more opportunities across markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Avex Music Group has increased its stake in S10 Entertainment to 85%, with an agreement to reach full ownership over time.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20810,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_display_header_overlay":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[518],"tags":[48333,48337,23746,424,48335],"class_list":["post-20809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-policy-legal","tag-avex","tag-brandon-silverstein","tag-music-acquisition","tag-publishing","tag-s10-entertainment","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Avex Music Group Takes 85% Stake in S10 Entertainment<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Avex Music Group now owns 85% of S10 Entertainment and plans to reach 100%.
