Rome’s MIA Market is launching a new strand dedicated to animated series called the Animation Series Gap Financing Market, and also an innovative hub to facilitate access for European productions to international financing, plus a new initiative focussed on experiential networking.

MIA (the acronym stands for the Mercato Internazionale Audiovisivo or International Audiovisual Market) is launching the Animation Series Gap Financing Market that is conceived as “a new industry format aimed at projects already supported by broadcasters and partially financed,” according to a statement. Producers and broadcasters will present animated series projects seeking international co-producers, co-financiers and co-commissioners, aiming to close their financing so they can launch into production.
