The morning will focus on the new Programme, Creative Europe, on the guarantee production Fund and on future channels of intervention relating to credit access. The afternoon will be dedicated to new MEDIA training courses: AdaptLab (Museo Nazionale del Cinema di Torino), The European TV Drama Series Lab (Erich Pommer Institut) and DOK Incubator (DOK Leipzig), to distribution and to preparatory work on circulating European audiovisual work in the digital era.
