Joe Abel: Every year, the Marketplace conference
gets better and better. This experience transcends
mere networking; it fosters a profound sense of
community and shared learning. The volume and
depth of information and camaraderie exchanged
is truly spectacular.
Miranda Carnessale: The opportunity to meet
one-on-one with film offices and commissions
around the globe is priceless.

the industry worldwide. The educational formal
presentations addressed a variety of location-
based filming practices, policies and progressive
ideas with valuable audience participation. The
room was about the future!
