A total of 826 business meetings were conducted from Oct 7 (Sat) to Oct 10 (Tues), with 196 attendees from 140 companies participating, solidifying the production of prospective new projects. Additionally, two new awards—the New Horse Award and ONE COOL Award, sponsored by Dreama Pictures and One Cool Pictures, each committing 15,000 USD in cash—were introduced, bringing the total award categories to 11.

Of the 30 projects from 13 countries selected for APM 2023, Rafael Manuel’s Filipinana, a triple-crown winner, received the TAICCA Award, ArteKino International Award, and Kongchak Studio Award. Hirose Nanako’s What’s Love Got to Do with It? and Jiang Xiaoxuan’s To Kill a Mongolian Horse won 2 awards each, with the CJ ENM and ARRI Awards, and the VIPO and Sørfond Awards, respectively.
