A report released by professional services network PwC has revealed that the copyright industry is the third largest sector of the Australian economy. The PwC report, released by the Australian Copyright Council (ACC), found that the copyright industry was behind financial and insurance services, and construction, but well ahead of manufacturing, education, retail, hospitality and agriculture. The report looked at the period between January and December 2016, and found the copyright industry contributed A$122.8 billion ($95 bilion) to the Australian economy, which is 7.4% of overall GDP. Alongside this, it employed over one million people.
