Two of the biggest names in the music industry's recent history, Hilary Rosen and Jay Berman, are to start their very own anti-piracy consulting agency that will be called "Berman Rosen Global Strategies". They will focus on intellectual property protection, international trade issues, digital media technology and anti-piracy strategies, and their history in the entertainment industry is key to their efforts' credibility.
Hilary Rosen was chief of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) around the time that Napster kicked off a huge fuss within the music industry that has just kept escalating these past years. At that time, Jay Berman was head of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). The pair have said they plan to act as a consultancy rather than a lobbying firm.
"Digital delivery and acquisition of entertainment is changing with lightening speed and so is the need to protect and promote the creative expressions that provide this entertainment," Berman said. "We can help guide businesses in the entertainment space on a variety of important issues such as licensing, public policy and anti-piracy tactics, both in the U.S. and internationally."
