This small-scale market is intended to improve on the promotion and development of new European and Mediterranean independent production of DOCUMENTARIES and the networking of audio-visual professionals and operators. MEDIMED has become a special-interest market which supports the promotion of Euro-Mediterranean audio-visual productions involving private and public television networks together with independent producers with the objective of European transnational co-operation.

In the 9th edition of MEDIMED (10-12 October 2008), 25 documentary projects from 17 countries and 300 + documentary programmes were presented to a select group of broadcasters and distributors. All producers of selected projects were available for pitching, presentation and networking discussions.

Due to the satisfactory results of the previous editions, this year, we propose again both projects and ready made product to be presented to a selected group of professionals, buyers, editors and financiers alike. The exchange between the Mediterranean and European professionals ideally should be a two-way traffic: Mediterranean projects and productions are presented to non-Mediterranean professionals [these will include extra-European delegates], and European ones hopefully will find their way into the Mediterranean [these will include South Mediterranean TV acquisition executives] while they are also presented to all delegates.
