I had the opportunity to moderate a session of The Economic Transformation Programme’s Industry Speaks on the topic ‘Cashing in on Films in Malaysia: Investment and Opportunities. Among the issues discussed were funding opportunities for filmmakers, the Film in Malaysia Incentive (FIMI), knowledge exchange, the value of the film industry and so much more. You can read about it at ‘Bright lights ahead for Malaysia’s film industry‘ and also view a brief video of the session below.
