Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast

Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast is about and for the entertainment industry. The podcast features long episodes as a year-round series, with short episodes to be aired exclusively during the EFM.

Our podcast is available on every major platform.
Listen to all episodes on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podigee and more.

As the first international film market of the year, the European Film Market (EFM) is where the film industry starts its business of the year. Industry Insights – The EFM Podcast dives into the most pressing and forward-thinking issues shaping the sector, offering a roadmap for the year ahead.

Through in-depth discussions and expert analysis, the podcast explores the challenges and strategies currently driving the industry. In partnership with the Goethe-Institut, we focus on critical topics such as digital transformation, diversity and inclusion, sustainability (social, environmental, and economic), and the transformative role of community building in the evolving film landscape.

Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast is one of the Berlinale podcasts and is provided in cooperation with Goethe-Institut and co-funded by Creative Europe MEDIA.
