Many studios and distributors in the United States will hold offers at Natpe Budapest in June. A+E Global Media, Lionsgate, Paramount Global Content Distribution and Sony Pictures Television are confirmed American players who will have their own offers in the central and eastern market that focuses on Europe.
Studio offers will be held at Dorothia Hotel in the Hungarian capital, through the street from Budapest Intercontinental, where the market is done. The timing of June for studios that participate in the display of its new goods after a short period of Los Angeles offers in May, where many CEE buyers do not make a trip to the United States and are waiting for the new American offers to see closer to the home.
The success of any television market depends, of course, the number of acquisitions of the executives present. Natpe Budapest said that 300 buyers have subscribed. This is a healthy height on 200 who were informed at the same point last year.
“Natpe Budapest has long been considered the most effective and efficient markets in CEE, and this year depends on this tradition,” said Claire McDonald, Executive Director, Natby Budapest. “The reason for our existence is to gather the main players in the region, and this year we expanded the market hall due to the exhibitors' request.”
Natpe Budapest is managed by the Canada -based BRUNICO Communications. It also organizes events including the Banf World Media Festival, the Realscreen and Sidscreen Screen Festival. Natpe Budapest will have a coordination path with real screen sponsorship as well as major components, conference sessions and stadium.
