UKTI is hunting for indies to travel to a roundtable in Italy and attend a day-long event in partnership with the Indielab TV Accelerator initiative.
The government body will pay £150 towards producers flying to Milan on 18 November for a three-hour event designed to help boost co-production opportunities with the Italian creative sector.
The roundtable follows the release of the latest James Bond film, Spectre, which was partly shot in Italy, and will include a range of local producers sharing their knowledge about the available schemes to support international cooperation opportunities.
Topics for discussion will include the availability of tax credits, co-production opportunities and shooting at Italian studios
The event will be moderated by Lucia Milazzotto, director of MIA, the Rome-based international audio-visual market.
Producers interested in attending should contact Valeria Notari.
