The Hong Kong Trade Development Council's (HKTDC) Hong Kong International Film and Television Market (FILMART) promoted cross-regional exchanges this year, including cooperation between the HKTDC and Thailand, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other regions. Key production houses also leveraged the event’s platform to establish connections with potential partners and customers in overseas markets.

The third edition of EntertainmentPulse will be staged on 11-14 March, concurrently with the Hong Kong International Film & TV Market (FILMART) - the largest cross-media, entertainment content-trading marketplace in Asia.

Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), the 28th Hong Kong International Film and TV Market (FILMART) at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre showcases a great variety of cross-media, cross-genre content.

Since its founding as a trading port nearly two centuries ago, Hong Kong has been a magnet for entrepreneurs from as near as Guangzhou to as far as South America, and everywhere in between.

The seven-day annual festival of literature, the HKTDC Hong Kong Book Fair, along with the Sports and Leisure Expo and World of Snacks, remained a fixture for many Hong Kong residents throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and returned in full force this year, with nearly one million visitors.

For many years Hong Kong families have marked one date in high-summer on their calendars, that being a day in Book Fair week; and recently two more events – Sports and Leisure Expo and World of Snacks – have ensured that it is a triple mark.
