First, it had sought to expand beyond its institutional environment by opening IMAX theaters within multiplexes or converting existing multiplexes’ screens to IMAX format. Second, it had launched Hollywood films in IMAX format and started converting the films, which had a great effect of raising the awareness of the IMAX brand and increasing revenue. It also employed both: 1) a forward integration strategy by increasing control over distributors and retailers. IMAX owned about 400 theatres in 47 countries.

Student University of Central Florida 1 COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT 2 SECTION I: Community Structure A. Name of Community: Orlando B. Map & Identification of Geographic Boundaries: Orlando has several city that border it including Ocoee to the West, Winter Park and Altamonte Springs to the North, Titusville to the East, and Saint Cloud to the South. C. Historical Evolution of the Community: Orlando can be dated as far back as 1836 during the Seminole War where new settlers fought to gain the territory against the Seminole Indians. There are differing stories about where the name Orlando came from but one of the most popular ones involved a man named Orlando Reeves who died during a sneak attack from the Indians. After the Civil War there was a population explosion which lead to the city being incorporated. Orlando was known as Florida’s citrus hub between the years 1875-1895. The city started to become a major tourist destination between the Spanish-American War and World War I. During World War II, Pine Castle AAF (now known at McCoy Air Force Base) brought many new residents to the state.
