Film Fiji recently participated in the 2024 HOTEC Tradeshow, held over two exciting days on the 24th and 25th of October at the Sheraton Resort in Denarau, Fiji. Hosted by the Fiji Hotel and Tourism Association (FHTA), this event brought together key players in the hospitality and tourism sectors, offering a unique platform for networking, collaboration.
Connecting with Industry Professionals
Attending HOTEC allowed Film Fiji to engage with a diverse range of service providers, including hotels, venues, and local businesses eager to support the growing film industry. Our presence at the tradeshow was focused on building relationships and exploring how these businesses can collaborate with Film Fiji to facilitate upcoming film productions. The vibrant atmosphere of the event fostered meaningful conversations, and we were excited to discover many potential partnerships that could enhance the services available to filmmakers in Fiji.
Showcasing Fiji’s Film Potential
The HOTEC Tradeshow was an excellent opportunity for Film Fiji to showcase the country’s breathtaking landscapes and unique culture as an ideal filming location. Our team shared insights about Fiji’s growing film industry, recent productions, and the benefits of filming in our beautiful islands. By highlighting the supportive infrastructure and local talent available, we aimed to position Fiji as a top choice for both local and international filmmakers.
Looking Ahead: Expanding Our Network
The connections made at HOTEC will be invaluable as Film Fiji continues to expand its database of service providers. By nurturing these relationships, we hope to create a diverse range of services for filmmakers, ensuring they have access to everything they need for a successful production in Fiji.
We are excited to follow up with the many contacts we made during the event and to keep our new partners informed through our upcoming quarterly Service Providers Newsletter. This initiative will help maintain engagement, share updates on upcoming productions, and foster collaboration within our growing film community.
Attending the 2024 HOTEC Tradeshow has strengthened Film Fiji’s commitment to developing the local film industry while showcasing the incredible opportunities available in Fiji. As we build on the relationships forged during this event, we look forward to continuing our efforts to promote Fiji as a premier destination for film and media production, ultimately enriching our cultural narrative and boosting the local economy.
