The 15th China International Animation Copyright Fair (ACTIF) kicked off on August 8 and will be running until August 11, 2025, in Dongguan, Guangdong. This premier event spotlights China's burgeoning animation sector, with Guangdong Province leading the charge.

Mr. Nibbelink believes "it's only a matter of time before the Chinese animation industry takes over the world," citing China’s rapidly improving product quality and expanding global market reach.
