Another year wrapped up at CineEurope! Thanks to our members for attending the event cinema focus session and seminars.
The Event Cinema Association (ECA) was welcomed back to CineEurope with our biggest presence ever, including a dedicated Event Cinema Focus Session as well as several targeted member Seminars.
On the Trade Show Floor, the Event Cinema Focus Session 'Jump-Starting Event Cinema', featured a panel of leading industry professionals, including Josep Maria Farras (FC Barcelona), Katrin Mathe (CGR Events), Simon Rees (Cineplace), Miguel Rivera (Cinepolis Group) and Gabriel Swartland (Movio).
Moderated by Celluloid Junkie's Patrick Von Sychowski, the panel looked beyond the arts to examine next steps to grow the Event Cinema industry, as well as how technology and brand partners may help engage new customer groups.
The session was introduced by ECA Board Member and VP Event Cinema, Cineplex Entertainment's Brad LaDouceur with a keynote on the status of the Event Cinema industry worldwide.
