Series Mania Forum Chloé Leclercq We're on the other side of peak TV and in an era of mega-media consolidation, but in the new world of scripted television there is a greater need than ever to partner, co-produce and co-fund. That is one reason Francesco Capurro, Director of the industry-focused Series Mania Forum, expects an uptick in attendance this year. "It's a challenging time for our industry, but in difficult times, people need to connect and to find the new ways to cooperate, new financing opportunities, and new markets," Capurro tells Deadine.
