Being an independent producer: what does it really mean today?
11 October, 2023 h 9:30 am
The panel, hosted by Creative Europe Desk Italy MEDIA, will examine the changing role of the independent producer in Europe. In an era marked by shifting dynamics, this session explores how independent producers are redefining their roles – and what it really means to be “independent” – amidst changing paradigms, media conglomerates and public funding initiatives, all in the context of evolving directives from the European Commission. Join the experts from the most significant European institutions, companies and trade associations to navigate the future of independent production in the current audiovisual landscape.
Followed by A Coffee with MEDIA at the Barberini Terrace.
