Thriving in the Era of Video Streaming
English and Putonghua(with simultaneous interpretation in English and Putonghua)
Moonlight Theatre
The rise of streaming media has not only changed the viewing habits of movies and TV programmes, but its D2C (Direct-To-Consumer) content consumption is disrupting the conventional practice of sales and distribution of the content. Streaming platforms are used by critical mass. Different entertainment contents could attract different users and hence would encourage diversities in the production. To move forward, industry players are actively exploring issues such as business models, market development, and IP rights protection under D2C consumption. The session will invite experts in the area to discuss the industry development, business opportunities and challenges brought by the rise of video streaming.
