Global Connect is a competitive, curated co-production program designed for established Ausralian-based film and TV producers seeking global partners and financing and held as part of SPA Connect at SCREEN FOREVER 40.

After the success of UK Connect (2023), Ireland Connect (2024) and Canada Connect (2025), the 2026 Global Connect initiative is slated to grow with an up to 30-person strong delegation made up of Australian and International producers. 

Hear from some of the participants from our Canada Connect program held at SCREEN FOREVER 39 in 2025 and our Ireland Connect program held at SCREEN FOREVER 38 in 2024.

In both iterations of the initiative, dynamic producers and a number of agencies, buyers and distributors joined Australian producers to forge new relationships and launch new projects.  

SPA is happy to see several projects progressing and strategic alliances developing between Canada and Ireland, and Australian producers who have participated in our Global Connect program to date.
