MIP Cancun wrapped a dynamic four days of accelerated deal-making, one-to-one meetings, networking, and content discovery with 750 buyers, distributors, producers, and digital platforms from 40 countries in attendance at the industry’s #1 international content and co-production market for Latin America and US Hispanic television (19-22 November).
After growing tenfold in its first decade, the 11th edition of MIP Cancun also welcomed 28 debuting distributors, introduced a newly upgraded online matchmaking platform to further enhance its signature one-to-one meetings, and staged the most comprehensive conference program to date including extended FAST & AVOD and Co-Production tracks.
“MIP Cancun is unique in being a strong business market powered by an incredible, engaged community whose feedback on the additions and the atmosphere at this year’s edition has been hugely positive,” said MIP Cancun director Maria Pérez-Bellière. “The essence and potency of MIP Cancun has always been the mix of personal and productive, in making meeting, networking, and dealmaking as simple as possible from breakfast to bedtime. It’s been a buzzy, insightful, and effective week thanks to the energy that everyone brought which makes this market so special.”
