MPA opens India office

The Motion Picture Association (MPA) has opened a local office in Mumbai and is set to bring Bollywood and Hollywood together to promote and protect intellectual property rights following its studios’ focused entry and recent investment in the Indian film and television industry.

MPA Chairman and CEO, Dan Glickman, said: “India is one of the fastest growing media and entertainment markets in the world. With over 3 billion total admissions in 2007 and multiplex screens increasing over 400% from 193 in 2006 to 907 in 2011, our member studios have decided to participate towards this dynamic market by investing many millions of dollars into the Indian film and television industry. Our new office will serve to promote, protect and expand their interests in India.”
