Copyright monetization company to present its solution to the multi-billion dollar file sharing problem

 

Santa Monica, Calif. - February 28, 2014 – Rightscorp (OTCQB: RIHT), the leading provider of monetization services for artists and holders of copyrighted Intellectual Property (IP), announced today that it has been invited to present at the upcoming 26th Annual ROTH Conference. The conference will be held on March 9-12, 2014 at The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel in Dana Point, California.

 

Event: ROTH Conference

Date: Wednesday, March 12, 2014

Time: 11:30 am (PT)

 

Rightscorp CEO Christopher Sabec and COO Robert Steele will present an overview of the Company and provide an update on its business highlights including its recently reported revenue growth driven by the acceleration of the Company’s copyright ingestion rate. Additionally, the Company has announced that it has crossed the threshold of more than 1 million copyrights for representation from content owners of music, movies, and other digital assets.

 

“We believe that the sophisticated investors who have participated in the success of Intellectual Property plays from companies like Acacia Research and VirnetX, will understand our value proposition to the industry and business model for monetizing copyrighted Intellectual Property,” said Rightscorp CEO, Christopher Sabec. “Since going public last fall, we have reported strong revenue growth. In addition, we have dramatically increased both the number of copyrights under contract and the ingestion rate of copyrights into our system. Our continued growth momentum makes this the right time to get out in front of the investment community whom we believe will appreciate the $2.3 billion market opportunity that our business presents, especially as more entertainment industry executives are recognizing the value of our services.”
