A Conference Reimagined

With its central theme "Reimagine Tomorrow", FMX 2021 reflects on how work in the industry has been disrupted in unprecedented ways. While remote and virtual workflows are adopted around the globe, visions for the entertainment of the future are giving way to questions about the future of entertainment. With every aspect of education, production and distribution affected, we are all being challenged to reinvent ourselves. FMX 2021 will look into these new experiences with presentations and discussions on how to adjust our processes and priorities, as we reaimagine tomorrow.
