International Screen Institute @ EFM 2026
A dynamic week at the Berlinale and European Film Market: from reconnecting with our community at a special networking lunch to engaging discussions on AI and IP in the creative industries.
What a week at the Berlinale and European Film Market!
It was a real pleasure to welcome so many of our alumni, experts, partners and friends to our networking lunch together with The Grand Post. Seeing familiar faces from across our community — and meeting many new ones — made it a truly special afternoon of exchange and conversation.
We were also delighted by the strong turnout for our panel AI Meets IP: What Creators and Producers Need to Know. The discussion highlighted some of the pressing legal questions currently shaping our industry — from copyright and authorship to contractual implications in AI-driven creative work — and offered a glimpse into the kind of topics explored in depth within our Business & Legal Affairs programme. Applications close on 16 March.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Berlin. We’re already looking forward to continuing these conversations in Vienna.
