DISCOP

DISCOP is a global market and conference series for television content, organizing events in multiple regions with a focus on Africa, the Middle East, and parts of Europe. It provides a platform for producers, distributors, broadcasters, and digital platform operators to license, distribute, and co-produce TV content, including series, films, formats, documentaries, and children’s programming.

The market combines a marketplace of meetings, screenings of catalog content, and an industry conference featuring panels and talks on trends, financing, distribution strategies, and market opportunities. Participants include independent producers, distribution companies, TV networks, streaming services, financiers, and advertisers. The format emphasizes pre-arranged business meetings, curated content screenings, and a program of keynote speakers and expert sessions.

A primary aim of DISCOP is to facilitate licensing deals and partnerships across regional and international markets, connecting content creators with buyers such as broadcasters and OTT platforms. By enabling direct negotiations, DISCOP helps to expand distribution, stimulate co-production activity, and support the monetization of catalog and new content across multiple platforms.

DISCOP markets are designed to reflect evolving industry dynamics, including shifts toward digital distribution, formats, and regional content strategies. Through networking, market intelligence, and access to a diverse catalog, DISCOP seeks to support growth in the independent content sector and foster collaborations that reach wider audiences.
