Among the conclusions drawn, it is found that, despite the uncertainty of the sector and its constant evolution, the audiovisual industry continues to look for new ways to connect with audiences. Collaboration between platforms, televisions and producers must be essential to ensure that content remains relevant and achieves greater projection. In a context of accelerated transformation, the capacity to adapt, the promotion of diversity and the encouragement of new talents emerge as the main key factors to guarantee the success and sustainability of audiovisual production in the future. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cThis year we had to do something special, and that was to bring to the big screen the fruits of the market of those projects that have been here. Two awards have been given to producers who deserve it for their valuable contribution to the Canary Islands audiovisual industry, supporting local talent and companies, and we have held special screenings of films that have not yet been released. It was only fair that the city could see these results in the cinema and it is very exciting for us, since, in a certain way, with these actions we close the circle of the main objective of the market, which is to see that the projects become a reality.\u201d<\/em>, R\u00edos continued.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Finally, Teodoro R\u00edos<\/strong>, honorary president of CIIF Market<\/strong>, reviewed the history that led to the birth of the market, recalling the creation of the \u201cSpanish Film Screenings\u201d in Lanzarote in 1999, with screenings of each year’s Spanish film harvest for international buyers, and where the first Spain Film Commission was created. \u201cThe screenings ended in Madrid and we then focused on setting up a market, which was first Euroforum and was based at the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Film Festival, and then evolved independently to become this CIIF Market in Tenerife, which is a necessary space for the development of projects and the strengthening of the industry.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
