The Bristol and Bath region is a global leader in the creation of internationally renowned films, TV shows, and video games. From the Oscar-winning Aardman Animations to the creators of the chart-topping game Plague Inc., the creative industries in Bristol & Bath have a significant cultural impact, with over 800 million people each month watching digital content produced in Bristol & Bath, and 35% of all global natural history television being produced in the region. This expertise combined with a unique cluster of four universities in two cities, specialist facilities and vibrant young talent make the Bristol & Bath the place to come for those in the creative industries.
Attending the world-renowned festival in Austin, will be a delegation of five businesses from the region, who’s attendance has been supported by Invest Bristol and Bath.
