Thank you to MedienNetzwerk Bayern for the invitation to present the at Media meets Games — a fantastic initiative connecting the games industry with the wider creative sector.

We were part of the Best Cases session alongside Ravensburger , Süddeutsche Zeitung , and EarReality , sharing how interactive, game-inspired formats can help IPs from publishing, film, music, journalism, television, and more grow across platforms and engage new audiences.

An inspiring day full of cross-industry insights — thoughtfully moderated by Petea Fröhlich — and wrapped up with a collaborative mini game jam 🎮.

Thanks to everyone who joined the conversation!

What if your story could live beyond the screen, the page, or the stage?
This week at Marché du Film - Festival de Cannes, we had the privilege of presenting the Gamebook PIC Platform—on invitation from the Creative Europe MEDIA program.

At the “Meet and Talk with Innovation Tools” event, we shared how our no-code platform empowers IP owners—from film, publishing, games, and beyond—to expand their value chains with interactive, serial content across platforms and markets.

🎬 Whether tied to a feature film, a book release, or an existing franchise, the PIC Platform helps turn stories into scalable digital experiences that drive engagement and unlock new revenue channels.

Thanks to all the creative minds we met in Cannes—let’s continue building the future of cross-media storytelling together.

👉 If you're exploring new ways to extend your IP, let’s connect.
