The Okinawa Contents Bazaar was held on March 25 and 26 in the 4th Okinawa International Movie Festival, at the Okinawa Convention Center, Ginowan City. About 20 production companies and visual artists from the United States and Asia came to the venue to meet Japanese counterparts such as representatives of digital television stations and production companies, to discuss how to produce digital video content for the global marketplace. This event aims to launch Japanese content from Okinawa to the world market, and it started when the 2nd Okinawa International Movie Festival was held. The people and companies involved plan to produce the content format in collaboration with counterparts in the United States and Asia, and to exhibit their work on the world stage at the likes of future international television festivals.

At the meeting, 20 Japanese companies, including representatives of television stations in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, publishing companies and companies producing digital video and games and overseas enterprises such as production companies from the United States, South Korea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Thailand participated. At the same time, a digital content exhibition for local people including virtual games and drama was held until the last day of the festival on March 30.
