The initiative aims to position Buenos Aires as a strategic hub for production and to generate new opportunities for financing, co-production, and distribution within the local audiovisual industry, facilitated through targeted events and the presence of producers across these two business circuits.
MIPCOM in Cannes (October 12–15) is the world’s largest and most influential market; it brings together every sector of the content industry—including global studios, streaming platforms, digital creators, brands, and innovators in artificial intelligence.
