The Salon provides a dedicated meeting lounge for connecting investors and production companies from MENA and beyond.
The Co-Production Salon is set to return for its fourth consecutive year at CABSAT 2025, reaffirming its role as a premier networking and collaboration platform for the global content industry. With a 90% re-participation rate, the Salon continues to play a vital role in driving high-impact partnerships, unlocking market opportunities, and fostering cross-border collaborations.
Organised in collaboration with HConsult, a content market specialist in the MENA region, the Salon is designed to push both creative and commercial boundaries. Among its key features is the ‘Co-Production Wall of Fame,’ which will highlight standout collaborative projects shaping the future of content. The invite-only ‘CEO Networking Power Hour’ will bring together 30 top executives for strategic dialogue, high-level networking, and deal-making opportunities.
Participants will also get an exclusive look at emerging content trends and upcoming projects. A smart matchmaking tool will further enhance the experience by connecting attendees with relevant partners, investors, and industry leaders.
Heba Korayem, Founder of Co-Production Salon, said: “We are delighted to launch key features at this year’s Co-Production Salon. Successful co-productions transcend mere financing; they function as a bridge between cultures, open new markets and create video assets that can be traded globally. The immense potential of the MENA region offers exceptional opportunities for international partnerships for further development, and our active presence in CABSAT has been driving this forward from the beginning.”
Held in an invitation-only setting, the Salon brings together top production houses, OTT platforms, TV networks, investors and brand representatives to explore co-production and investment opportunities aimed at developing content with global appeal.
CABSAT 2025 will welcome participants from over 120 countries. In addition to the Salon, visitors can attend the Content Congress conference and explore the exhibition floor, featuring the latest in media tech and production solutions—solidifying CABSAT as a vital hub for industry innovation and collaboration.
