SHAPING THE FUTURE WITH THE AUDIOVISUAL SECTOR
A SUSTAINABLE AND IMAGINATIVE INDUSTRY
The agenda is available here.
Lille Dialogues is a high-level, international summit organized every year within Series Mania Forum. It brings together European policy makers and key industry leaders to exchange views on the major strategic, economic, and regulatory issues facing our sector.
A new edition is taking place on March 23, 2023, around the theme “Shaping the future with the audiovisual industry“.
Reflecting on the upheavals that have affected our world in recent years, the day will aim to imagine a new tomorrow while inequalities continue to grow, and environmental and societal crises follow one another with increasing intensity. What better way than fiction to open new perspectives and give us hope?
Our industry has a dual responsibility: to change the way we produce content and to show that an alternative is possible. The programme will offer an opportunity to explore the possible levers for continuing to make us dream, while contributing to the construction of a more responsible, collaborative, and caring society: it will be forward-looking and, hopefully, bring optimism.
Lille Dialogues are organized in partnership with the Ministry of Culture, the CNC, and the European Commission. The 2023 edition is conceived in partnership with Imagine 2050.
