FOCUS COPRO’ PROGRAM
Private event dedicated to the project holders
The program puts networking & close interactions at the center of its ambitions by gathering key industry initiatives within an Industry Lunch, held within the Festival de Cannes.
In addition, project-holders receive guidance from established mentors through online presentations of development platforms & markets, as well as tailor-made consultancies helping them establishing their co-production strategy & targeting what could be the best match for their feature film project.
