Ajay Bijli, Managing Director of PVR INOX and Founder of PVR Cinemas to deliver the exhibition keynote address on international day at CinemaCon 2023 being held from April 24 to 27 in Las Vegas (USA).
The annual week-long event held at Caesars Palace, where Ajay Bijli will focus on India’s progressive and contemporary expansion, is attended by nearly 6,000 delegates, spanning over six continents, as the largest and most prestigious gathering of cinema owners and operators, Hollywood studios and exhibition suppliers from around the world.
Ajay Bijli, Managing Director, PVR INOX and Founder, PVR Cinemas said, “I am delighted to be invited by CinemaCon to present a special International Day keynote address on behalf of exhibition representing the Indian film and cinema industry. India currently has the highest number of movie releases and amongst the highest admissions, and though the pandemic severely impacted our industry for nearly two years with operating restrictions, the Indian market was the first to recover among global cinema chains.” Ajay Bijli also expressed the company’s successful recovery was “Because of our huge pipeline of Indian produced movies in the form of Hindi and regional content, apart from overseas Hollywood content – attributed to our resilience coupled with India’s passionate movie-goers. Cinemas are the country’s number one out-of-home entertainment choice, due to affordability, accessibility, and limited location-based leisure activities.”
Mitch Neuhauser, Managing Director, CinemaCon said, “With upwards of 71% of the global box office coming from overseas, international exhibitors play a more important role than ever before. India continues to cultivate a strong movie-going culture having established stature and continuity. We’re delighted Mr. Bijli accepted our invitation to share valuable insights as a thought leader and for India’s global contributions in exhibition.”
