WHAT’S NEXT FOR ASIAN CREATIVES IN THE GLOBAL MARKET?

Inside the Next Wave of Entertainment: Predictions and Opportunities in the Age of AI, K-Pop Globalization, Vertical Video, and Streaming

Where is the next decade of entertainment revenue actually hiding?


In a fragmented media landscape, success is defined by the strength of your ecosystem. Our panel, “What’s Next for Asian Creatives in a Global Market,” explores the critical decisions that will determine, from Kpop, microdrama, theatrical, to streaming,  which creators lead the next five years of global entertainment.


The Roadmap: Navigating the Next Wave of Global Content
This is where we break down the shifts that actually matter for your strategy:

  • Short-Drama ROI: Moving past the "hype" to discuss long-term sustainability and high-quality production.

  • The K-pop Blueprint: Decoding how cultural IP successfully scales across borders and industries.

  • Commercial Leverage: Insights for producers and directors on maximizing the commercial value of a project from pre- to post-production.

  • Talent Equity: Strategies for independent creators to build commercial leverage and scale their personal brand.

  • The Distribution Debate: What stories go to streaming platforms, and what go to theaters?
