Rio2C concluded its second edition boasting impressive numbers. More than 25,000 people visited the Cidade das Artes during the six-day event, which featured 415 panels – with 1,060 speakers –, generating a total of 780 hours of content. At the Rio2C Market, 1,537 One-to-One Meetings took place, and 1,811 projects were submitted for music, innovation and audiovisual Pitching Sessions.

Event organizers estimate a 20 to 25% increase compared to last edition in terms of economic impact and the volume of business deals conducted. In 2018, that total was R$200 million, while in 2019, the number should surpass the R$250 million mark. Another noteworthy result was the volume of data, with daily access topping 150,000 and more than 9 terabytes exchanged, the equivalent of 2.5 million high-resolution photos or more than 3,000 hours of streaming.
