\"CPIPARLINGTON, Virginia \u2013 August 22, 2018 \u2013 The Center for the Protection of Intellectual Property (CPIP<\/a>) announced today that Matthew Barblan<\/a>, CPIP\u2019s Executive Director, will leave the center this month to join the Association of American Publishers (AAP<\/a>) as Vice President, Public Policy. \u201cIt has been an amazing journey working with such wonderful colleagues to build CPIP from the ground up over the past five years,\u201d said Barblan. \u201cI\u2019m deeply grateful to my friends at CPIP and Scalia Law for making the center\u2019s success possible, and I look forward to following CPIP\u2019s growth and influence for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beginning on August 27, 2018, CPIP founder Adam Mossoff<\/a> will become Executive Director of the center. \u201cAs a founding member of CPIP\u2019s leadership team, Matt was absolutely essential to the success of the center over the last five years,\u201d said Mossoff. \u201cI will miss very much my day-to-day interactions with Matt at Scalia Law, but I\u2019m looking forward to continuing to engage with him at future CPIP events on IP policy in his new role in representing the publishing industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the transition, longtime CPIP friend and senior scholar Sean O\u2019Connor<\/a> has joined CPIP as Director of International Innovation Policy. O\u2019Connor will be an integral part of CPIP\u2019s leadership team, focusing on law and policy issues regarding innovation and entrepreneurship, with a particular focus on international contexts.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited about the future of CPIP, and it is a great pleasure to welcome Sean to the team,\u201d said Henry N. Butler<\/a>, Dean of Antonin Scalia Law School. \u201cOn behalf of the Scalia Law community, I also want to thank Matt for everything he has done over the past five years to take CPIP from idea to reality and build it into the successful center that it is today. Matt has been a great colleague and friend to the law school, and we wish him all the best in his new role at AAP.\u201d<\/p>\n
