RICARDO AYA MORENO

He is a forward-thinking executive who seamlessly integrates music, technology, and legal expertise to drive innovation in the commercial audio space. With a strategic focus on AI-generated music, intellectual property efficiency, and brand-aligned soundscapes, he consistently stays ahead of industry trends. Through Bido, he is building a scalable, rights-conscious music platform tailored for retail, hospitality, and commercial environments. His approach combines business acumen, legal precision, and creative insight — not merely delivering music, but shaping how it enhances customer experience and brand identity.

Within the music industry, Ricardo Aya is actively exploring the potential of leveraging API-based communication to bring greater transparency and efficiency to public performance royalties. He envisions developing an application that enables catalog owners to track which music is being played at each commercial establishment in real time. To achieve this, he is working to align a diverse set of stakeholders — including content owners, individual and collective rights managers, major labels, performance rights organizations (PROs), background music service providers, and businesses themselves. The goal is to build a system akin to a "Nielsen for music," offering structured insights that could significantly improve the accuracy and fairness of royalty distribution.

Beyond his professional endeavors, Ricardo Aya is also an avid collector of model cars — a hobby he approaches with both passion and strategic insight. Recognizing that collectible toys can appreciate in value by up to 20% annually, he views his collection not only as a personal interest but also as a viable investment. With the growing relevance of artificial intelligence, he is currently exploring the development of a specialized app for collectors, aimed at enhancing cataloging, valuation, and community engagement within the collectibles market.
