Professor
Georgia State University, School of Music — Music Technology & Management. Teaching from the same work he does every day.
Ben Yonas teaches in the Music Technology and Management program at Georgia State University’s School of Music, located in the heart of downtown Atlanta. The courses bridge creative production and the business realities of the modern music industry — not as separate disciplines, but as the same work approached from different angles.
Everything in the classroom comes from active, working experience: producing records, managing 14 touring artists through Yonas Media, placing music in film and TV through ATL Sync and Crosstown Sync. Students don’t study the industry from a textbook. They learn from someone still doing the work daily, and they build real experience through MTM Standard — a student-led company that handles actual distribution and sync licensing.
