Heba Korayem, Founder of CoProduction Salon, said: “We are delighted to launch key features at this year's' Coproduction Salon. Successful co-productions transcend mere financing, they function as a bridge between cultures, open new markets and create video assets that can be traded globally. The immense potential of the MENA region offers exceptional opportunities for international partnerships for further development and our active presence in CABSAT has been driving this forward from the beginning.”
