Held since 2019, Reach – Audience Matters is a section of BrLab that addresses the issue of audience and audience formation. The entire program is open to the general public and focuses on reflection on the audience of audiovisual projects in development, always bringing together important players from the national and international market to clarify trends and crucial discussions in the audiovisual sector. In times of Blockchain, Streaming funding platforms, Big Data and other innovative technologies, we are constantly realizing the importance of connecting these concepts to a larger audience of professionals and discussing how important audience engagement is throughout the life of a film, from its development, financing to its distribution.
