On the global stage, FITC stands as an original event, and is recognized as one of the top events in this space. Each year, FITC has broadened its programming range to grow with its widening audience and appeal to a larger audience. It is anticipated that we will have over 1000 attendee’s this year, the largest ever. FITC attracts attendees and award entrees around the world.
FITC has three goals ….to inspire, to educate, and to challenge, all within the Design and Technology space. This is accomplished by assembling the leaders and shakers within the industry, and presenting them through presentations, panels, Q&A sessions, workshops, evening mixers, an awards show; all squeezed into three very intense days and nights.
While designed as a showcase for Canadian digital media talent, the FITC Awards has developed into a local and international phenomenon. It has attracted so much international attention that international award winners often send acceptance speeches via digital video links or make the trip to Toronto at their own expense.
As well, the festival has had enjoyed strong community and industry support from organizations and companies such as: Apple Canada, Adobe, Macromedia, Sony Canada, Microsoft, Tech TV, Chum TV, Humber College, the Canadian Film Centre, Sheridan, City of Toronto, IMAT, Digital Eve, Spadina Bus, and Flash User Groups from across the world.
