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.
The CMPA is as interested in working within established markets and festivals as it is in building strategic industry contacts and exploring new opportunities outside of these.

Up to ten (10) established Canadian independent producers with strong television and feature film proposals (including sizzle reels, if possible) will be invited to pitch to senior Development Executives from major US broadcast and cable networks, and streaming services during a three day session held between August 21 – 23 in Los Angeles.
