Growing international cinema circuit signs Cinionic for major laser roll-out

CinemaCon, Las Vegas, Nevada – April 24, 2018 – With Cineworld Group acquiring movie chains at a breakneck pace, the exhibitor is now focused on partnering with a premier cinema solutions provider to deliver unforgettable movie experiences.
