The Uganda Performing Rights Society was formed in 1985 by authors (mainly musicians) to advance the cause of copyright administration in Uganda. It is registered with the Registrar of Companies as a Company Limited by Guarantee having no share Capital in otherwords it belongs to all of its members. ==Information== (UPRS ) is recognised by the Government as a Collecting Society and it is a Member of the Confederation of International Societies of Authors and Composers ( (CISAC ) ). In 2004 World Intellectual Property Organisation ( (WIPO ) ) donated a Workstation to Uganda and Government presented it to (UPRS ) so that we may manage your copyright effectively and in conformity with the international standards. Meanwhile, (UPRS ) has entered into Reciprocal Agreements with other Societies Worldwide under the auspices of (CISAC ). Therefore, (UPRS ) protects foreign and local works falling within our repertoire in Uganda while other Societies protect your works (through (UPRS )) in their respective Countries. Simple and easy isn't it ? However, by not being a member of (UPRS ) you may be losing millions in royalties collected from various users around the world but which royalties cannot be remitted to you since you are not a member of the World Family of Authors and Composers ! 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uganda Performing Right Society」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
