Singapore Media Festival 2021 Successfully Connects Local Talents and Businesses to Global Opportunities
 The 22nd Asia TV Forum & Market (ATF), Asia’s leading entertainment content market and conference, has wrapped up its Opening Week of activities. In line
with the progressive resumption of in-person engagements, ATF adopted a hybrid format this year, with its in-person Opening Day held at the Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, taking place alongside its digital platform — ATF Online+.

The event was officially opened by Singapore’s Minister for Communications and Information, Mrs Josephine Teo, who announced that two Singapore media companies, Beach House Pictures, and Clover Films, will work with Curiosity Stream and iQIYI to create content for a global audience.

Singapore will also continue to provide opportunities for upskilling the local industry, with Netflix conducting workshops for up to 20 local screenwriters to hone their craft in series writing next year.

ATF 2021 saw 2506 unique attendees from 61 countries and regions participating, including 16 official pavilions and 139 speakers, judges, and speed daters. The first three days saw more than 11,738 meetings arranged, underpinning ATF’s importance as a key industry platform to facilitate business dealings.

An extensive list of 3,983 programmes is listed on the ATF Online+ platform, which continues to be available on-demand and will be updated with fresh content up to June 2022.
