Absolutely - and we actively encourage it. The whole point of the co-located format is that you can move between streams freely. If a session in the flexible packaging theatre looks relevant to your work, go. If the stretch film stream has a panel you can't miss, it's yours. Your badge gets you into everything. There are no silos.
Sponsorship and exhibition packages are priced comparably to what you're used to from our individual events. Supplier delegate rates are in line with our standard conference pricing. Film producers and converters benefit from a significantly reduced rate — and if you're a brand owner, we want you in the room, which is why we've made it very attractive for you to attend. Get in touch for a quote tailored to your situation.
The Global FilmTech Forum is a new format built to deliver more value than standalone events can. Your specialist stream is still here — the depth, the speakers, the technical sessions — it just sits alongside a much larger platform. Think of it as everything you came for, plus considerably more.
Networking is baked into the structure, not bolted on. The schedule is designed with deliberate breaks, an exhibition showcase built for conversation, and a dedicated evening networking party. With a larger, more diverse attendee base than any of our previous individual events, the opportunity in the corridor is as valuable as anything on the agenda.

We recommend you ensure that your travel plans leave you enough spare time to cope with weather delays or industrial action, and that your travel insurance policy will recompense you for any financial loss that you suffer because of being unable to travel for other reasons. Remember that if you cannot attend an event, then you can always send a colleague in your place at no charge.
It is entirely possible that you may need a valid visa to enter a country where AMI is holding an event. This is especially the case for individuals attending our events in Europe and holding non-European passports; and our events in the USA and non-USA passports. We recommend that at the time of booking you check the visa requirements with the embassy of the host country in your home location.
We are unable to give refunds to delegates who cannot attend because they fail the visa requirements of the country concerned.
AMI always does its utmost to avoid changes in the advertised agenda. However, it is a fact of life that from time-to-time amendments must be made because of changes to speakers’ circumstances or corporate change. We make sure the agenda on the website is up-to-date, please use the navigation bar above to view.
We will give you a full refund, less an administrative charge of 30% of your booking value, if we receive your cancellation more than 8 weeks prior to the first day of the event. Thereafter, we regret that no refunds can be made.
Please note that refunds will not be given for sponsorship packages, exhibition spaces or dinner bookings.
Yes, delegates may be substituted at any time, with no charge. You can do this by using the ‘Modify Booking’ button within your confirmation email.
If AMI needs to reschedule this event, we will roll over your booking to the new dates. If we are unable to run this event in the next 12 months, you will be able to use your registration against any AMI event within the next 12 months or get credit to use towards another AMI product.
