Years and Years: A Conversation Starter About Tomorrow

Our industry is navigating a period of significant change, and this session will illuminate near-horizon shifts being discussed at a governmental level, exploring their potential for both positive uplift and unforeseen consequences in the next five years.

We'll engage with timely scenarios which could play out, including:
Political and Tax Changes: The potential ramifications of a government running on an 'anti-woke’ or ‘anti-Arts’ agenda amidst a ‘cultural recession’
Changes to the special tax status of performers.
Advertising Restrictions: The effects of potential new restrictions for TV advertising content on job availability for on screen talent.
Technological Opportunities: The exciting possibilities of new technologies that could help collect royalties and remunerate performers more equitably and the shift to the creator economy and vertical short films.

This ‘what if’ session offers everyone a seat at the table to proactively discuss and help shape the future of talent discovery.
