ATLANTA, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — VIVO360, Inc.’s (VIVO) inaugural year as an Official Sponsor of the 2024 Caribbean Film Festival highlights VIVO’s commitment to fostering creativity & innovation. For 23 years VIVO has consistently strived to shape a future where creativity thrives, and stories have the power to transcend borders and transform lives.
VIVO’s founder & CEO, Sophie Gibson founded VIVO with the premise of supporting and recognizing creative talent in the arts. As an artist growing up in Kingston, Jamaica and demonstrating her artistic talent as a young teen attending The Queen’s School and Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts, Sophie recognized that art was not taken seriously and was encouraged to abandon her artistic dreams. “I support the arts because I want to make sure all children understand that there is a place in this world for their natural born artistic talents,” says Sophie Gibson.
“We are committed to conveying the magic of this unique event and to sharing the stories of the Caribbean film festival in the world with everyone,” says Egan Gibson-Thompson, Account Director with VIVO. Purchase tickets – (https://givebutter.com/QAACCFF2024)
