RPM was a Canadian music industry publication that featured song and album charts for Canada. The publication was founded by Walt Grealis in February 1964, supported through its existence by record label owner Stan Klees. RPM ceased publication in November 2000. RPM stood for "Records, Music"; the magazine was reported to have variations in its title over the years such as RPM Weekly and RPM Magazine. RPM maintained several format charts, including Top Singles, Adult Contemporary, Urban, Rock/Alternative and Country Tracks for country music. On 21 March 1966, RPM expanded its Top Singles chart from 40 positions to 100. On December 6, 1980 the main chart became a Top 50 chart and remained this way until August 4, 1984 whereupon it returned to being a Top 100 Singles chart. For the first several weeks of its existence, the magazine did not compile a national chart, but printed the current airplay lists of several major market Top 40 stations. A national chart was introduced beginning with the June 22, 1964 issue, with its first-ever national #1 single being "Chapel of Love" by The Dixie Cups.

Prior to the introduction of RPM's national chart, the CHUM Chart from Toronto radio station CHUM was considered the de facto national chart. The final #1 single in the magazine was "Music" by Madonna. Since the closure of the RPM Music Publication, RPM Magazine a Street Machine, Race Car, Grudge Race car magazine has been in business and owns the copyright to the name RPM Magazine; the modern Juno Awards had their origins in an annual survey conducted by RPM since its founding year. Readers of the magazine were invited to mail in survey ballots to indicate their choices under various categories of people or companies; the RPM Awards poll was transformed into a formal awards ceremony, The Gold Leaf Awards in 1970. These became the Juno Awards in following years; the RPM Awards for 1964 were announced in the 28 December 1964 issue: Top male vocalist: Terry Black Top female singer: Shirley Matthews Most promising male vocalist: Jack London Most promising female vocalist: Linda Layne Top vocal instrumental group: The Esquires Top female vocal group: Girlfriends Top instrumental group: Wes Dakus & The Rebels Top folk group: The Courriers Top country male singer: Gary Buck Top country female singer: Pat Hervey Industry man of the year: Johnny Murphy of Cashbox Canada Top record company: Capitol Records of Canada Top Canadian Content record company: Capitol Records of Canada Top national record promoter: Paul White, Capitol Records of Canada Top regional record promoter: Ed Lawson, Quality Records Top album of the year: That Girl by Phyllis MarshallA column on page 6 of that issue noted that the actual vote winner for Top Canadian Content record company was disqualified due to a conflict of interest involving an employee of that company, working for RPM.

The Sovereign Art Foundation is a non-profit organisation established in 2003 by Howard Bilton, a tax lawyer and today's chairman of the Sovereign Group. A charity, the SAF works towards raising money to help disadvantaged children in Asia and using the arts as a form of rehabilitation and therapy. In 2013, the SAF set up the Make It Better project that allows for weekly art therapy workshops to take place across Hong Kong and Asia focusing on under-privileged families' children. In 2003, Howard Bilton transformed his art-collecting hobby into what is now Asia's largest art prize: The Sovereign Asian Art Prize; this prize, hosted annually in Hong Kong, is a visual arts competition among 30 finalists whose work is auctioned to raise funds for the MIB project and other charities. The prize focused on artists working in the medium of painting only but have since expanded to include other 2D media, including photography and print, as well as 3D sculptures; the Sovereign Art Foundation invites a network of experts from either Europe, Asia or Africa to nominate artists to participate in the prizes.

During the exhibition the final judging is performed live and the winner of the US$30,000 first prize is announced and an additional US$1,000 is given to the artist with the public vote for best work. At the culmination of the exhibition there is a charity gala auction where the finalists' works, excluding the first prize winner, are auctioned, with half the proceeds going to the Foundation and the other half going back to the artist. Since 2007, the SAF have expanded their work towards Europe with The Sovereign European Art Prize, the Middle East with The Sovereign Middle East and North Africa Art Prize in 2016 and the rest of Africa with The 2011 African Art Prize. In addition, Sovereign Art Foundation Students Art Prizes are awarded in a number of countries including Hong Kong, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Mauritius and Singapore; the Sovereign Art Foundation has used the funds raised through the art prizes it runs to support various charities that help disadvantaged children using the arts as rehabilitation and therapy.

Three specific examples are Make It Better, M'Lop Tapang and the Kalki Welfare Society. In 2013 The Sovereign Art Foundation launched the Make It Better Project, an initiative designed for children from low-income families and those with special educational needs. In Hong Kong, many individuals struggle with extreme financial hardship, they and their families may face social isolation and discrimination. Make It Better aims to support these children by offering them empowering learning activities reinforced by expressive arts. MIB runs weekly workshops in partnership with experienced organisations and schools that help identify those children most in need of support. M'Lop Tapang works jointly with children and their families to access education, health care, income generation initiatives and other services needed to secure a better future, it works in the community to increase awareness about issues affecting street children, in particular abuse, amongst local people, police and government officials, helping to make the community a safer place for children.

The Sovereign Art Foundation is working with M'Lop Tapang to create a two-year arts programme to help them teach new skills to the disadvantaged children of the area. The Kalki Welfare Society is a non-profit organisation working for vulnerable children of Pondicherry and nearby areas. Since June 2008 Kalki has striven to provide a better opportunity to street and other vulnerable children living in poor conditions, offering them the chance to become active players in their lives; the Sovereign Art Foundation is working with the Kalki Welfare Society to establish an arts project for the disadvantaged children it supports. The Sovereign Art Foundation has supported Kids Company, The Prince's Foundation for Children & the Arts, Room to Read, The Peace Art Cambodia Project and the Hong Kong Youths Art Foundation to name just a few. Over the years the Foundation has raised in excess of US$2 million for charitable activities; the Sovereign Group is the main sponsor of the Sovereign Art Foundation.

Sovereign pays all the administrative expenses, office costs and the prize money. Partners are sought for the sponsorship of the key events and previous exhibitions and auction dinners have been supported by Louis Vuitton, Barclays Wealth, Jaeger Le Coultre, Cathay Pacific, Sotheby's, ADM Capital and many others; the Sovereign Asian Art Prize was initiated in 2003 when the Sovereign Art Foundation was established as a charity in Hong Kong and is the Sovereign Art Foundation's most established prize having had over 2000 artists in the region submit entries in its history.
