The Motion Picture Association has signed CEO and chairman Charles Rivkin to a third three-year contract that will keep him with the MPA through January 2027.

Since his arrival to the film industry lobbying group at the start of 2018, Rivkin has overseen a significant expansion of the organization’s global operations. To reflect that international expansion, the group shorted its longtime name, the Motion Picture Association of America, to just Motion Picture Association in 2019.

In his most recent term, Rivkin and the MPA lobbied for the expansion of tax incentive programs for film productions in several major states, including California, New York, Georgia, New Jersey and Louisiana, as well as in countries like Canada, France and New Zealand, among others.
