To thrive in today’s global marketplace, Canadian content needs to travel across our borders and onto international screens.
The CMPA works to:
-
Promote co-production opportunities for CMPA members.
-
Expand our members’ international market knowledge.
-
Strengthen our links with offshore industry organizations looking to broaden their own international market reach and presence.
CMPA 2023-2026 International Strategy
International Co-production Accelerator Program 2.0
The International Co-Production Accelerator Program (ICAP) 2.0 is a premier training and project incubator program for scripted live-action feature films. The CMPA first offered ICAP in 2021 to respond to the continuing need to facilitate international collaboration during the global pandemic. The initiative will return this year in a hybrid format, combining virtual instruction with in-person events at Berlinale/European Film Market in 2024.
