Content protection trade body the Audiovisual Anti-Piracy Alliance (AAPA) has made significant changes within its leadership team following recent elections.

Stepping into the role of Co-President is Cameron Andrews, Legal Director for Anti-Piracy at beIN Media Group (pictured). Andrews brings a wealth of expertise and a commitment to protecting audiovisual content. His leadership is anticipated to bolster the alliance’s efforts in facing evolving piracy challenges on a global scale.

The elections also reaffirmed the appointment of Oliver Pribramsky, Head of IP & Content Protection and Committees at DFL, as Co-President for another mandate. Pribramsky’s continued service represents a steadfast dedication to safeguarding audiovisual rights and advancing collaborative anti-piracy strategies across the industry.

Mark Mulready, Vice President – Cyber Services at Irdeto BV, has decided not to seek re-election for a fifth term as Co-President of AAPA, after eight years of dedicated service and remarkable contributions to the alliance’s mission. He will continue to support AAPA’s mission as the Irdeto Board member.

The alliance extends its deepest gratitude to Mulready for his unwavering commitment to combating audiovisual piracy, fostering industry collaboration, and championing innovation in anti-piracy measures. His leadership has been instrumental in driving the alliance’s success and advancing its objectives.

AAPA says it remains resolute in its mission to protect intellectual property and support its members in combating piracy, ensuring a robust and secure future for the audiovisual sector.
