The Arab Broadcasting Landscape, an Overview

DISCOP Istanbul, co-organised by Basic Lead and Globus Fairs, hosted 709 participants at the International Convention and Exhibition Center in Turkey early March.

The sixth edition of the renowned content development production and distribution international gathering, drew 102 television content sales organisations and 402 programming executives, who were on hand to acquire films, TV series, adaptation rights and more. For this edition, the organisers expanded the human resources and onsite-matchmaking assistance to increase the number of meetings among attendees.

“Despite recent regional geopolitical tensions, this sixth edition of DISCOP Istanbul continued to underline the strong strategic role the market plays as a major hub for global television business, as well as the vital importance of the expert, pro-active meetings organisation offered by Basic Lead during the event,” said Patrick Zuchowicki Jucaud, the CEO of Basic Lead.
