Bruce Cam, CEO and founder of Titan Media, told XBIZ that his company is grateful for the award.
“A very sincere and heartfelt thank-you to Diane Duke and the entire FSC board for recognizing Titan Media with this award,” Cam said. “I hope that we can continue to lead by example in the areas of content protection and safer sex thru the use of condoms in all our films. Our message to the industry is that protection and profit can indeed go hand in hand.”
