Movers and shakers in cinema flock to the French Riviera every spring for one of the industry’s most prestigious events – the Cannes Film Festival.

The Hong Kong Trade Development Council's (HKTDC) Hong Kong International Film and Television Market (FILMART) promoted cross-regional exchanges this year, including cooperation between the HKTDC and Thailand, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other regions. Key production houses also leveraged the event’s platform to establish connections with potential partners and customers in overseas markets.

Strong growth in Southeast Asian film-making and virtual production (VP) technologies were key topics for participants at the recent Hong Kong International Film and TV Market (FILMART) and EntertainmentPulse, organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC).
