New online b2b platform

Following the digital evolution of the festival, Cartoons on the Bay offers an online b2b platform within which every festival’s attendee – and in general every professional within the animation industry – will be able to:

  • create their own profile
  • promote their own animation and cross-media projects
  • search for professionals and partners among those who are members of the network
  • organize one-to-one meetings that could take place online on the same platform, or could be held in attendance at the next edition – in presence – of the festival
  • easily communicate with other users through internal chat

Cartoons on the Bay Festival

RAI COM through their Special Projects Department organizes events of national and international relevance. Among them, the flagship project is the Cartoons on the Bay Festival.
Cartoons on the Bay was born in 1996 as a showcase of the Rai Dept. dedicated to animation, launched in that period. Today the festival is one of the reference events for the European animation industry, as well as a prominent occasion to get updated on the latest content in the transmedia sector and in the visual arts in general.

Live throughout the year

The platform is live throughout the year, not only on the occasion of the festival, and is an extraordinary opportunity for the animation industry, and beyond, to expand continuously their own network. It is the first festival of its kind that will offer a networking service like this, in addition to the main industry trade shows, combining the content of a festival with new business opportunities.
