The Pitch for Platforms, Producers, and Distributors at Iberseries & Platino Industria targets audiovisual creators and producers from Ibero-America with projects in all stages—from concept or development to pre-production, production, or packaging. The goal is to foster connections between emerging or established talents and key industry decision-makers, including representatives from major streaming platforms, production companies, and distributors.
Selected projects will be presented in 15-minute private meetings with companies seeking to co-produce, fund, acquire, or distribute audiovisual content. Eligible formats include fiction, animation, and documentary feature films, as well as all types of series (fiction, animation, documentary, and non-fiction).
The event will take place from September 30 to October 3, 2025, at Matadero Madrid, as part of Iberseries & Platino Industria, organized by EGEDA and Fundación Secuoya.
Applications must be submitted through the official website. In the previous edition, over 150 projects were selected, and companies such as Amazon Studios, Sony, Warner Bros. Discovery, and Telemundo participated.
