Europa Cinemas is pleased to unveil a brand new COLLABORATE TO INNOVATE section on our website, dedicated to our flagship funding-scheme and showcasing the projects supported.

Brand new COLLABORATE TO INNOVATE section on our website!

Initiated by Europa Cinemas with the support of Creative Europe/MEDIA in 2021, COLLABORATE TO INNOVATE is a new flagship scheme which aims to reward outstanding innovative and collaborative projects implemented by Europa Cinemas Network members from the same country or at a European level. The projects supported must have a real impact on the film sector, promote the circulation and visibility of European films, develop their audiences, in particular young people, and increase the skills and competitiveness of cinemas. One of the main priorities of this scheme is also to encourage exhibitors to integrate inclusion and environmental sustainability into their approach. Europa Cinemas' financial contribution amounts to a maximum of €100,000 per project.

In 2021, 15 projects have been selected for support in the framework of COLLABORATE TO INNOVATE. And 13 new projects have been supported for the second edition of the programme in 2022

Each individual project has set out its own measurable objectives and targets and the work has been analysed. One of the core goals of Collaborate to Innovate is to share those results and best practices across Europa Cinemas Network and beyond for further development.

To this end, Europa Cinemas will be holding three Zoom sessions to present the final results of the first cohort of COLLABORATE TO INNOVATE projects to our Network, and hopefully inspire other exhibitors to participate in the next edition of the programme!

We will give the floor to the coordinators of the 15 projects selected in 2021 who will share with you their experience, results and best practices, as well as to exhibitors interested in pitching new ideas and finding partners for the 2023 edition.

October 25th, 11am-1pm (CEST) - October 26th, 11am-1pm (CEST) - October 27th, 11am-1pm (CEST)

It is still time to register your interest in these Zoom sessions via: https://form.jotform.com/Europa_Cinemas/CTI2022_register
