01 / HiChina analysis

Portuguese-language relevance and local production partnerships matter.

ANCINE’s annual statistics document a sizeable audience and exhibition network. That is a market context, not evidence that an imported catalogue will secure screens. For HiChina, the entry point is local creative and distribution expertise, with Portuguese adaptation and clear territorial rights.

02 / Cooperation opportunities

01

Develop IP and animation with Brazilian producers and creative teams.

02

Build Portuguese localisation and audience-specific promotional assets.

03

Organise production services and rights packages for selected cross-border projects.

03 / Recommended entry route

  1. Select the audience and local production or distribution lead.
  2. Prepare a Portuguese sample, rights inventory and channel requirements.
  3. Test a limited project and its commercial assumptions before a catalogue expansion.

Execution conditions

Exhibition scale alone does not establish access or profitability. Public support, local qualification and distribution obligations must be checked for the actual project.
