The awards were given out as part of the 2nd Europa Cinemas Network Conference in Paris 1-4 Dec 2022.  Around 600 professionals including exhibitors, distributors, producers and sales agents from all over Europe attended the event, which marked the 30th anniversary of the Europa Cinemas Network.

After the shock of the pandemic and a COVID-powered boom in audiences for streaming platforms, the conference stressed renewal based core values. As the organisers stressed cinemas are social spaces and business enterprises, creating jobs, embracing a range of skills, from business management to marketing, as well as projection, social media, data analysis.

An average of 60% of screenings of non-national European films take place in the Europa Cinemas network. The network is critical to the economy for sales and distribution, and producers and directors want their films seen on the big screen.
