What is the BVA and Industry Trust?

BVA

The BVA was Established in 1980 to represent the interests of publishers and rights owners of pre-recorded video entertainment.

Video entertainment is critical for the cultural and economic success of the UK's audiovisual sector.

The BVA's members account for some 90% of this £2 billion+ industry and include film and television companies and independent labels which produce, license and distribute film, sport and fitness, music video, TV, children's and special interest programming.

They represent the industry’s interests collectively to: the public, the media, Government and other industry organisations.

Industry Trust

Industry funded, their aim is to address the ongoing challenge of film and TV copyright infringement by inspiring audiences to value great movie moments and choose to watch film, TV and video via legitimate sources.
