CMPA Mission to Berlinale

Deadline: December 13, 2019

Up to 15 emerging producers will be invited to join the CMPA delegation travelling to Berlinale 2020 from February 18-26, 2020, inclusive of travel days. The purpose of this initiative is to create co-production, financing and sales opportunities for emerging CMPA members.

In addition to attending the events, selected participants will participate in activities organized specifically for the delegation with local and international producers, financiers and buyers. All activities will focus on providing emerging producers with a competitive advantage by helping them gain access to market intelligence and contacts that otherwise would be out of reach.  The programming will support the needs of emerging producers who are looking to engage with international partners, with a focus on Europe. Being part of the delegation will create opportunities to gather information, network, find buyers and co-production partners.

Financial assistance of up to $4,005.00 CDN or 75% of real costs (whichever amount is less) will be available to help offset a portion of travel, accommodation and conference registration expenses.
