MIP London is produced by the team behind Mipcom Cannes, the major entertainment content market for the international TV industry, which takes place in October.

MIP London aims to attract international content companies and to encourage more business in London during a key week in the global TV industry calendar, coinciding with the London TV Screenings.

The market will include meeting spaces and screening theatres alongside a five-day programme of networking, screenings and genre-specific summits.

“More people coming to London means more business done in what has become the must-attend content week in February,” said Lucy Smith, Director of MIP London and Mipcom Cannes. “Whether you are a company already hosting a screening event, planning to visit for the first time, or simply there to see more people, with this new MIP market our aim is to be complementary to existing events by providing additional opportunities to meet, showcase or discover content across the week.
