The future of the media and entertainment industry is dependent on the effective protection and management of intellectual property rights. We can provide the latest information and advice both on how rights management operates today and how it should be updated for on-line use in the digital age.

We have extensive practical experience in the music, film and videogame industries covering both conventional/existing and future rights management systems (DRMs) and also the various technical and regulatory initiatives/negotiations currently under way.

We can help you maximise revenue streams based on your rights in music, video and publishing including those which relate to performance, broadcasting, reproduction and blank tape/equipment levies.

Sweeney Consulting can also offer expert advice on fighting piracy and counterfeiting of intellectual property rights both on and off-line based on wide ranging experience in the media and entertainment sectors. This practical know-how is complemented by skill and understanding developed whilst lobbying for appropriate laws and enforcement at all levels.
