The Opening Industry Conference 2026
Born in a World of Moving Images
Crossing screens to ignite young imaginations
This year’s m:brane conference invites the industry to take a leap — into new ways of imagining, creating, and sharing stories for young audiences. We explore the spaces where storytelling expands: across formats and platforms, between art and technology, and through collaborations that reshape how stories are made and experienced.
m:brane is a place for crossing borders — where film meets games and immersive worlds, where learning and wonder intertwine, and where ideas are nurtured into future-ready models. It is an ecosystem for curiosity, courage, and connection, built on the belief that the most powerful stories emerge in the spaces in between.
Accreditation is now open. We invite you to join us in shaping what comes next.
Programmer: Founder & Creative Director: Annette Brejner
Producer: Prami Larsen
