With the continuous cooling of the economic environment, the energy crisis, the Ukraine war as well as the ripple effect of the COVID pandemic, the European film and content industries will be facing a challenging year ahead. Drastical subscription-cutting, a peaking competition for screen and attention time, the volatility of acquisitions, and the fragility of the value chain and acquisitions will be set for a wide-reaching reconfiguration of the European audiovisual industry, especially for small and medium-sized players. The ecosystem’s fragility is also influenced by the fact that member states and industry funding institutions, in the state of complex geopolitical affairs, are facing a tough road ahead with limits on available support schemes and industry-boosting measures to deploy.
Supported by the European Commission, Creative Europe MEDIA, and organized in partnership with the Black Nights Film Festival and its Industry@Tallinn & Baltic Event Platform, Europe in Focus: Industry Innovation Forum comes to Tallinn on 22 November 2022.
