Cinépolis has quickly risen to<br />
become one of the biggest<br />
exhibition circuits in the<br />
world. The Mexican circuit is<br />
now present in 14 territories<br />
worldwide, and will soon<br />
add Saudi Arabia to that list.<br />
Miguel Rivera joined the company as<br />
strategic planning director in 2005, serving<br />
as the director of programming in its<br />
Mexican operations from 2009 to 2015. In<br />
his current role, Rivera oversees the circuit’s<br />
programming teams around the world—<br />
including all event cinema and distribution<br />
initiatives. During his tenure, Rivera has<br />
led company efforts in digital deployment,<br />
anti-piracy measure, and film festival activities.<br />
<strong>Boxoffice</strong> spoke with Rivera ahead<br />
