Recognition is a key moment for every artist – external confirmation can be a game-changer and take a project to the next level. NEM Awards bring projects to life by presenting them to key industry leaders and key audiences. At last, this is what NEM Zagreb is all about – we want to connect talents with valuable opportunities, create a space for new collaborations and enhance the TV industry in Central and Eastern Europe.
The perfect candidates for NEM Awards are aspiring scriptwriters and content creators, industry-related students, producers, broadcasters, production companies, talents, and other TV industry professionals, coming from the CEE region, Europe, and the rest of the world.
