On October 11, 2022, the Film Financing Market was presented within the framework of the Sitges Film Festival. The presentation consisted of talks and debate tables, and included the participation of experts in financing and technology who analysed the advantages of private investment in the production of audiovisual content.
Joaquim Matinero Tor, banking-financial & Blockchain associate at RocaJunyent; Orlando Pedregosa, Vice President and Director of Film.io; Adrián Garelik, co-founder and CEO of Flixxo and Covadonga Fernández, Blockchain specialist, founder and director of Observatorio Blockchain, who acted as moderator, formed the round table on New technologies applied to film financing on Web3. In it, they talked about new technologies and financing, a topic that generated great interest, including a discussion about cryptocurrencies, NFTs and financing models. “The new technology, or new form of investment, makes projects that would never have come to light before, because they were really daring and no one could tell if they would be a success, come to light and also end up succeeding. Both for the cinema and for new productions this is a success and a new path. It is really complementary to the traditional, so we can never say no to technology,” said Matinero.
