PAC Multimedia operates locally, nationally, regionally and internationally.

The main role of the PAC Multimedia is to inform, create and promote cooperation in the region and wider, as well as to stimulate dialogue throughout the region.

We, the people who created PAC Multimedia, are visionaries; we promote new ideas and serve as an encouragement to the Macedonian cultural and youth sector, to fit in and to act in accordance with the times of change in which we live.
