"Producers increasingly need international financial partners and funding. They will find both again this year at the world's largest TV market event, as production remains at the heart of MIPTV 2012," said Laurine Garaude, director of the Television Division at Reed MIDEM.

MIPTV 2012 includes a host of dedicated events and conferences created to benefit producers. The Drama CoProXchange and Producer's Hub programmes are designed to facilitate co-production deals and support the producers' search of financial partners while in Cannes.

Kicking off the Drama CoProXchange programme on Sunday 1 April, MIPTV's first invitation-only Drama CoProXchange Summit will bring together 50 international commissioners, producers and deal-brokers involved in co-production at its highest levels for two hours of semi-structured networking behind closed doors, at the Majestic Hotel.
