WASHINGTON – April 10, 2017 – BSA | The Software Alliance welcomes Vishal Amin’s nomination to be the next US Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator (IPEC) in the Executive Office of the President.

“I want to extend a warm congratulation to Vishal Amin on his nomination. The IPEC’s office plays a vital part in protecting innovations that drive the American economy,” said Victoria Espinel, President and CEO of BSA | The Software Alliance, who served as the country’s first IP Enforcement Coordinator before joining BSA. “I understand the unique challenges and rewarding opportunities that the coordinator faces, and Vishal Amin is an outstanding choice to tackle those head on.”
