GALE ANNE HURD WHAT IS THE PRODUCED BY CONFERENCE 2015?

On May 30-31, 2015, the Producers Guild of America will present the 7th annual PRODUCED BY CONFERENCE in Los Angeles. This is the only event in the world where the most influential decision makers in the entertainment industry – Producers – gather together in one place.

Reaching across the film, television and new media industries, the PRODUCED BY CONFERENCE is an educational forum that attracts over 1,000 participants each year. The event involves numerous Academy Award-winning filmmakers, Emmy Award-winning showrunners, innovators in the new media space, and the next generation of creative entrepreneurs. More than 50 national and entertainment media outlets cover the Conference, and more than 150 individual news stories are generated each year.

The PRODUCED BY CONFERENCE is a unique opportunity to be part of a large-scale, entertainment industry- only forum, including: extraordinary panels, innovative workshops, mentoring roundtables, networking breakfasts, lunches, evening receptions, digital exhibits and information sharing.

Each year PRODUCED BY is hosted by a major Studio in Los Angeles. The host of this year’s PBC is Paramount Pictures Studios, and the event will start with a Kick-Off party on Friday evening, May 29, at Paramount for PGA members and PRODUCED BY Sponsors.
