Apart from the participating governments, an advisory committee of large US-based multinational corporations was consulted on the content of the draft treaty,[29] including the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America[7] and the International Intellectual Property Alliance[30] (which includes the Business Software Alliance, Motion Picture Association of America, and Recording Industry Association of America).
