In a report published by the Department of Trade and Industry, ACPI President Juan Miguel Del Rosario said that attending the MIPCOM is a big opportunity for the animation industry of the Philippines since the major players in the industry are there.

This opportunity can generate new business engagements as there is a growing demand for content and creative services in Europe.
