NEM Zagreb is focused on content creation in the low-production capacity countries of the CEE. From the inaugural edition in 2019, NEM Zagreb’s mission is to link European decision-makers with audiovisual industry specialists.
Zagreb, Croatia, was chosen due to its accessibility and the advantageous location at the center of Europe and the CEE. NEM Zagreb is bringing all the major and well-known industry brands to the area and establishing CEE as a hub for talent that hasn’t yet been identified, as well as for high-quality non-English material.
The potential of CEE-based TV series and films and the gap in the worldwide market was detected a couple of years ago. Now NEM Zagreb has the opportunity to expand its concept thanks to the EU’s Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) and the requirements it places on large broadcasters. NEM Zagreb is co-funded by the European Union, through the Creative Europe MEDIA sub-programme.
Main goals of the event is to educate, connect and promote professionals, companies, and projects from the CEE. NEM Zagreb is creating opportunities for new projects, jobs, co-productions between CEE countries and co-production between low and high-production capacity countries. Also, content acquisitions within and outside the CEE, as well as investments by European or global streamers into CEE original content.
