Bengaluru GAFX B2B: 2018 registration
The main agenda for the 2018 edition of GAFX is focused on creating more opportunities and to help establish a strong foothold for the community in the AVGC sector. Keeping this in mind, GAFX 2018 is hosting one of the biggest Business to Business (B2B) Summit in the country.
The Summit will bring selected international and national studios, producers, broadcasters, distributors and financiers to participate in this ‘buyer: seller’ interface. The B2B Summit is a ‘mini market place’ event aimed at promoting local IP creation and providing a platform that would match locally developed concepts with the needs of global and local buyers. A brilliant lineup of International and National stalwarts from the industry will be a part of this event shedding light on their expertise and empowering the AVGC community in Bengaluru.
