For years, the European film, streaming & content industry has been shaped by US and Chinese players. Netflix, Apple, Amazon, ByteDance and Google are among the few dominating streaming, infrastructure, AI models and screen technologies. High time to speak about Europe, sovereignty and emerging opportunities.

Let's Talk about

Some of the most distinguished global experts from the intersection of media and digital operations – from VFX and 3D, from AI and animation tech and from leading production companies – will speak about their views on: Creativity and Tech in 2026.

Europe's biggest screen market is restructuring at speed. What can we learn from it? Leading players from British film, broadcasting & streaming share what's working, what isn't and what comes next.

Journalism & Tech

Platforms changed the rules of journalism. Generative AI is changing them again. What lessons from the platform era still matter today? And how can journalism remain independent, relevant and trusted in a media environment shaped by algorithms, AI agents and the tech companies behind them?
