Company History
In an effort to grow the artist management profession and continue to nurture first-rate artists, Vanessa Uzan founded UIA in 2011, and the company quickly became a leader in personal artist management. Ms. Uzan built a team with over 100 years of combined experience in the entertainment industry, whose dedication to cultivating unique talent and efficiency in dealing with the complexities of the artist management field have become the gold standard for talent representation worldwide. After developing an international roster of over 100 artists including singers, conductors, stage directors, and designers, 2014 saw the expansion of UIA’s business with the establishment of its theatre, film and television division, leading to the transition to UIA Talent Agency in 2019. This expansion broadened UIA’s horizons considerably, allowing the company to offer top-rate talent for nearly any performance opportunity, and allows greater opportunities for our clients through cross-genre promotion.
