CHINA: TECHNOLOGY, MONEY, SOCIAL MEDIA, AND AUDIENCES
h 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. / Hotel Boscolo Exedra (Sala Diocleziano)
In cooperation with Udine Far East Film Festival /Focus Asia (www.fareastfilm.com).
For much of recent history Chinese companies have been accused of copying Western
products, goods and services. In the film and entertainment areas, it may now be time for
a rethink. This seminar will look at how China has pulled away from some old business
models and has developed its own communications technologies, styles and syntax.
These put Chinese companies – and the foreign companies that are now also using these
platforms – in close touch with Chinese audiences and consumers.
Speakers:
Jeffrey Chan (COO and board member of Bona Film Group)
Isabelle Glachant (CEO, Asian Shadows)
Moderator: Patrick Frater (Asia Bureau Chief, Variety)

with the political and institutional will to develop and support the animation industry, with
significant financial and welfare benefits.
