Investors Circle unites the world’s leading experts in film and media financing for a day filled with engaging discussions and exclusive film projects.

Launched in 2023, the Investors Circle represents the latest initiative of the Marché du Film.

Held at the prestigious Plage des Palmes, this one-day summit begins with an insightful keynote panel, featuring esteemed experts from the film financing world.

This is followed by an exclusive pitching session, strictly reserved for private investors. Thanks to a distinguished panel of experts, Investors Circle will proudly showcase a carefully curated selection of top-tier film projects that are actively seeking investment.

To cap off the summit, we will host an exclusive cocktail event, presenting a golden opportunity for the project creators and producers to interact with potential investors, who could provide substantial support for their projects.


The Marché du Film’s Investors Circle aims to highlight and support artistically ambitious film projects while providing essential financial backing. For the first time, we are selecting projects of the highest caliber to present to top-tier investors. In light of the current financial landscape and Cannes’ unique positioning, we believe it’s relevant to explore new opportunities for funding through private investment, and we hope this event will grow in the coming years.
