Economic actors and professionals in the image industry met at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry to assess the situation and progress of this growing sector.
As a reminder: in the Cรดte d’Azur region, 300 companies have been identified, generating a turnover of 200 million euros and creating 1,650 jobs.
The image and audiovisual industry, at the crossroads of art, business, and technology, is a growing sector.
Companies in this rapidly evolving field are facing new technologies and are driven to reinvent their business models. They demonstrate a diversified, complementary, and high-quality expertise.
The Cรดte d’Azur is fertile ground, rich in creativity thanks to the skills of its companies, the quality of the training offered, and the global professional events it hosts.
Looking to the future, two major projects stand out that indicate the sector will experience further growth:
the Victorine Studios project, which the municipality will take over. Its operational model and revival are the subject of an analysis by an ad hoc commission that will soon make proposals.
the Image Technopole located in Cannes-La Bocca, which will be established in 2019-2020. This is a hyper-modern complex bringing together a business hub for the sector, a university center focused on training, and a multiplex cinema.
