AI is repricing culture
- Production and post
- Dubbing and localization
- Iteration and versioning
- Getting to distribution-ready
- JudgmentWhat gets made, and what gets backed.
- RightsFranchises, catalogues, likeness, the slate.
- ProofWho made what — now written into Indian law.
- PresenceRooms, seats and screens a model cannot generate.
- InstrumentsThe structures that finance the other four.
One side causes the repricing. The other owns what gets repriced. Capital sets the new prices.
This forum is the first room in India with all three in it.

12 of 18 session titles published. All are working titles.
The rule of the room
Every panellist commits, in writing, to one figure not said publicly before.
Eighteen sessions. Eighteen numbers that were not on the record this morning.
Seats are assigned against a mix, not sold
Studio principals and slate owners. Franchise ownership and league commercial heads. Music catalogue owners. Creators and their personality-rights counsel.
Streaming and exhibition leadership. Venue and live-event operators. Ticketing, payments and fan-data platforms.
AI platform and research leadership. Structured finance and rating agencies. Family offices and sovereign allocators. Media insurers and policy voices.
They are who everyone else comes to meet. Their share of the room is protected.
The people who make and the people who build, in front of the people who price.
Names publish only once bookings are confirmed in writing. Anchor speakers are booked per session, with named alternates behind each.
Partners speak from inside the sessions
No sponsored slots. No product keynotes. Each partner takes the seat its product already belongs in.
One seat per side of the thesis. Naming alongside the forum, opening keynote, first priority in introductions, category exclusivity carried into 2027.
A panel or masterclass seat matched to category, principal floor presence, priority introductions, sub-category exclusivity.
A roundtable or workshop, floor presence, introductions access, both days of the forum.
Demo presence on the partner floor, listing across forum materials, delegate seats.
Season Zero. 2026 partners are founding partners, with first right on their category into the 2027 standalone edition.
