MIPCOM 2020 becomes 3-day limited event

July 31, 2020 14.08 Europe/London By Robert Briel

MIPCOM2020MIPCOM 2020 will become a 3-day event called MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES without the regular stands taking place October 12-14 in the Palais des Festivals and incorporating MIPJunior.

The digital version, called MIPCOM ONLINE+, will launch on October 5 and run through to mid-November. The organizers made the announcement after a number of exhibitors said they would not attend a physical event.

“We want to help the international television community get back to business and the combination of face-to-face at MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES and digital MIPCOM ONLINE+ makes this possible. We understand that some people will be unable to travel to Cannes, so they can be part of the MIPCOM experience digitally. New health and safety guidelines meant considerable disruption and extra costs for exhibitors and their stands, so we decided there will be no exhibition stands at MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES,” says Laurine Garaude, Reed MIDEM’s Television Division Director.

MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES will see a new show floor plan for face-to-face meetings and market screenings, and delegates will be able to use open meeting spaces, reserved tables or privatised lounges. The event will take place in the Ambassadeurs and Riviera halls of the Palais des Festivals. Physical distancing will be in place as part of comprehensive health and safety measures throughout the Palais.

Commenting on the presence of acquisition executives in Cannes, Laurine Garaude notes, “The launch of the Global Upfronts is the centrepiece of our Buyers Programme. We have stepped up our invitations to buyers and we are also working closely with major studios from around the world to present their newest and most exciting slate of content.”

Delegates who are unable to attend MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES can set up online video meetings, screen programmes and access conferences via MIPCOM ONLINE+.

The combination of MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES and MIPCOM ONLINE+ will enable MIPCOM’s international community to connect and share the MIPCOM experience, in Cannes or anywhere worldwide.

Exhibitors who have already booked a stand for this year’s MIPCOM will receive a choice of refunds or credits for MIPCOM RENDEZVOUS CANNES or future MIP markets.
