Rewriting the Rule Book

History

The Festival of Media was launched in 2007 in Venice, as the world’s first global festival of media creativity.  In its first year, it attracted the international media community’s most senior directors and was welcomed as an important new addition to the media business calendar.  With the enthusiastic support of the industry, the Festival more than doubled in size and outgrew its original location, moving to Valencia, Spain. In 2010 the Festival will again take place in Spain’s third largest city. The agenda for the Festival continues to develop in consultation with the industry – ensuring that it both remains relevant to the core delegation and attracts a new audience, reflecting the new opportunities that are developing for creative, effective media communication.
