Former Attaché for U.S. Embassy Will Be Based in Singapore and Manage MPA Content Protection Programs for APAC Region
WASHINGTON, April 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Motion Picture Association (MPA) has hired Dawn Barriteau as Vice President of Content Protection for the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. She joins the MPA after more than two decades with the U.S. Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) division, where she most recently served as Regional Attaché in the U.S. Embassy in Singapore.
Barriteau's first day with the MPA is March 31. She will be based in the MPA's Singapore office and report to Larissa Knapp, Executive Vice President and Chief Content Protection Officer for the MPA.
In her new role, Barriteau will work to tackle the distribution of illegal content across multiple jurisdictions in the Asia Pacific region, in close coordination with the global content protection team. She will manage complex internet investigations around the globe and oversee a team of internal and external investigators.
Previously, Barriteau led HSI operations in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, and Timor-Leste, collaborating with domestic field offices, international law enforcement agencies, and private sector partners. She also directed global investigations spanning five countries in the APAC region, focusing on illicit trade, trade-based money laundering, fraud, financial crimes, and IP and copyright infringement violations. In addition, Barriteau has conducted country-level threat assessments and leveraged strategic intelligence in APAC, identifying supply chain integrity risks related to commodities, counterfeit goods, falsification, and diversion resulting in the recovery of over $9 million in lost revenue.
"I'm thrilled to welcome Dawn to the MPA's content protection team," said Knapp. "Dawn's vast experience in intellectual property rights enforcement and her extensive network of government agencies and law enforcement officials in the APAC region will strengthen the MPA's global work in protecting the creative marketplace."

"Our alliance with Leave No Trace is born from a deep resonance with their core principles of sustainability. Through BLUETTI's solar solutions, we're taking tangible steps to care for our planet, working alongside Leave No Trace to minimize campfire impacts, respect wildlife, and more."
"At Leave No Trace, our mission is to educate and inspire communities to protect the outdoors.

Powering Leave No Trace Traveling Teams with Clean Energy
Since 1999, Leave No Trace's Training and Educational Team has transformed trails, campsites, and public lands into interactive outdoor classrooms, engaging thousands of hikers, campers, and environmental advocates across the U.S.
This year, the team continues its mission to educate and inspire outdoor enthusiasts. To enhance their fieldwork, traveling educators are utilizing the BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 solar generator as a vivid example of responsible energy use in nature.
Operating at a whisper-quite 16dB, the Elite 200 V2 significantly reduces noise pollution compared to traditional generators that emit around 60dB. This low-noise solar generator ensures minimal disturbance to wildlife and fellow adventurers, making it ideal for camping and other outdoor activities. Additionally, the solar generator provides a clean, , smoke-free alternative to gas generators, allowing team members to power coffee makers and cooking equipment while reducing wildfire risks in the upcoming wildfire season. To further reduce carbon footprint, team members will install Charger 1 Alternator Charger to capture excess power from their car's alternator for fast recharging. Along with the 200W Portable Solar Panel, they can recharge their power stations using the sunlight, ensuring smooth travels across the United States.
Making Clean Energy the New Trail Marker
Charge clean, leave no trace. As outdoor life increasingly relies on energy solutions, these two green pioneers are on a shared journey, redefining sustainable energy use for nature exploration. BLUETTI is furthering sustainable energy practices outdoors while expanding the reach of Leave No Trace principles, jointly exploring effective energy practices to preserve the purity of natural landscapes and a healthier planet.
