WE all can assure that to our best knowledge there is no greater and more useful professional, educational and cultural initiative available in Europe for such a wide range of audiovisual industry talent than NIPKOW Fellowship Programm and WE wish our colleagues and our competitors to have the same opportunities.

For more than two decades, NIPKOW Fellowship Programm has built bridges between film and media professionals in Western and Eastern Europe, providing unique made-to-order approach in meeting the individual needs of each of its participants and in linking them up with the appropriate partners, thus successfully forging the way for outstanding European co-productions and partnerships, which WE are all a proof of.

WE see that the programm’s know-how and professional network accumulated over the years is invaluable and WE truly hope this one-of-a-kind initiative can continue to flourish with the support of CREATIVE EUROPE.

Sincerely,
