Mr. Sabec's invitation to co-chair this event signifies his leadership in anti-piracy and rights protection.
"I am honored to serve as co-chair of this event, as I believe it is a great resource for the latest and most useful information to protect copyrighted IP and support creators," said Christopher Sabec, CEO of Rightscorp.

Through reasonable settlements - and avoiding litigation - our solution protects owners of IP and fosters further creativity."
At the 2014 Summit, Mr. Sabec delivered a key presentation on Internet Service Providers' (ISPs) legal obligations to content creators and their liability for subscriber infringements. In this talk, Mr. Sabec highlighted the growth of peer-to-peer piracy in North America and noted that under U.S. law, no one is entitled to participate in piracy with impunity. He also encouraged rights owners to hold ISPs accountable for piracy on their networks. In this year's summit, Mr. Sabec will be speaking in the session "Web 4.0: It's Time for the Internet to Grow Up," in which he will advocate for a future when the IP of creators is protected on the web.
