TV Beats Forum

TV Beats Forum is the place to meet the key international players working on TV drama in Baltics, Nordics and Central Eastern Europe region. Starting from a one-day forum in 2018, we have build a drama series Co-Financing Market, now in its sixth year, and a Screening Day of completed series, now in its second year.

The prime objective of TV Beats Forum is to inspire and facilitate the entry of regional producers and service providers into the international series co-production industry. With this in mind, the two-day Forum provides plenty of chances for networking, gives an overview of industry trends, explores success stories and provides fresh insights to the even more challenging financing structures of today’s TV drama.

Producers, scriptwriters and directors will share their best practises through several case studies.

In 2025, we will also be hosting the SERIAL BRIDGES BALTICS, a new training initiative proposed by the French Institute and Series Mania. Read more about the call for projects.

Important part of the Forum are the pitchings of eight series of the CO-FINANCING MARKET. For the second year, the best project of will receive the Council of Europe TV-Series Co-Development Award.

TV Beats Forum and Co-Financing Market 2025 will take place from 17-18 November. The events are run by as Co-Heads Petri Kemppinen, and Roosa Toivonen, two seasoned experts of international film and TV content.

TV Beats is the series section of Tallinn Black Nights Film festival industry platform Industry Tallinn & Baltic Event.
