Switzerland meets… is a unique opportunity for Swiss producers and representatives of public funds and television to meet a delegation from another region/country, and to encourage co-production, networking and collaboration. In 2023, delegations from Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg came to Nyon: Switzerland meets Benelux.

The two-day program includes an introductory roundtable discussion to present the challenges and opportunities for co-production between Switzerland and another region/country. We will also discuss the country-specific aspects of co-production and funding partnerships (funds, broadcasters, tax incentives, etc.), as well as a presentation of the selected production companies from both the invited country and Switzerland. This presentation will cover their profiles and line-ups.

On the second day, business-focused individual meetings between the invited country and Swiss professionals will take place, allowing participants to exchange on their own projects for potential co-productions.
