A MESSAGE FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY EDITORIAL

Dear partners, clients and friends:

The cancellation of Miptv 2020, announced by Reed Midem, as well as other industry markets which have also been postponed due to the coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis in Europe and the world, has drastically impacted every company that’s a part of this beautiful business of international content production and distribution.

In this regard, the impact this news has made on our annual commercial plans requires us to be closer and more bonded than ever as an industry, and for that union to be represented through actions rather than words. During this unprecedented situation, TTVMedia Group has been committed to supporting its clients, ensuring the exposure of their products and plans on our multiple print and digital platforms, for them to reach the entire international industry.

Now, more than ever, we are stronger together.
