This workshop will help participants to focus on each event’s comparative advantages, strengthen programming and develop strategies to realize the event’s full potential.

Topics to be addressed include: strategic planning, opertations, programming, industry relations, sponsorship & marekting, hospitality and press, panel, juries and community outreach, etc.

This workshop is part of Cuba’s Escuela International de Cine y TV official International workshop calendar.
