Brazilian Entertainment and Media Industries Conference (BREMIC)
BREMIC, or Brazilian Entertainment and Media Industries Conference, is the first conference in the US about the Brazilian film, television, publishing, music, videogame, and technology industries. From discussing the future of newspapers to the ever-growing gaming industry, we brought remarkable speakers from a multitude of backgrounds and experiences, and united 200 students from the US, Canada, and Europe. Our mission is to educate and inspire students about Latin America's fastest growing market for entertainment and media.
