À PROPOS DE NOUS
QAFF Foundation
Calle 127A # 7B - 42
Bogotá, Colombia
NIT: 901342968-1
La Fondation QAFF traverse les continents, s'enrichissant des émotions et des savoir-faire d'autres cultures. Voyager avec le plaisir de se déplacer entre des coutumes similaires séparées par un repère historique. Nous côtoyons et apprenons de la réalité des personnes qui nous entourent au quotidien.
La Fondation QAFF a été créée par Wilfrid MASSAMBA pour profiter des opportunités qui se présentent dans le développement d'activités et d'échanges culturels en emmenant l'Afrique en Colombie et vice versa.
La Fondation QAFF travaille dans les domaines de la production et de la distribution audiovisuelle (cinéma, télévision et contenus pour les plateformes web) ; événements culturels et donc implicitement dans la musique et les arts visuels.
La première initiative a été le QUIBDÓ AFRICA FILM FESTIVAL, dont la première édition s'est tenue du 18 au 28 septembre 2019, la deuxième du 15 au 19 septembre 2020 et la troisième du 13 au 18 septembre 2021.
Cette initiative montre très clairement l'orientation de la Fondation QAFF en tant qu'acteur culturel, à la fois pour les productions audiovisuelles, la distribution de contenus et l'événementiel pour se positionner sur le marché africain et sa diaspora comme public cible, tout en imaginant avec elle, conquérir l'Amérique Latine marché qui est estimé à plus de 400 millions de personnes.
