9th edition of MIP Cancun on track to exceed 800 delegates from 40 countries

RX France (organizers of MIPTV, MIPCOM and MIP Cancun) confirmed a return to pre-pandemic levels for the 9th edition of MIP Cancun, international content market for Latin America and US Hispanic television, scheduled 13-16 November 2022 at the Moon Palace Hotel in Cancun, Mexico.

Two weeks from opening, MIP Cancun is set to welcome over 800 delegates from over 40 countries. This contrasts with 450 delegates who convened in 2021 amidst widespread travel restrictions, marking a return to pre-pandemic levels.

Sold out are MIP Cancun’s signature one-to-one matchmaking business accelerators, which match distributors with buyers and producers with commissioners for 3 days of pre-scheduled meetings.

Delegate passes are still available providing full access to the market’s comprehensive 3-and-a-half-day conference and events program. Registration includes more than 30 sessions with keynotes, multiple content showcases and screenings, a large networking lounge, exhibit hall featuring services providers, as well as a pre-opening party sponsored by Sony Pictures Television, opening night party and closing party. The 6th annual PRODU Awards return on Tuesday evening 15 November. All meals are included with registration.

The Mediapro Studio, a key player in content creation, production and distribution across all genres for television and film, will present MIP Cancun’s opening night party.

Lucy Smith, director Entertainment Division, RX France said: “In just under a decade MIP Cancun has become established as THE must attend meet point for everyone worldwide doing business with the LatAm and US Hispanic television industry. The take up has never been more rapid or the programme more diverse – a testament to the region’s continued exceptional creativity and explosive growth – a momentum we are committed to contribute to, and evolve the market in line with, over the next decade.”

“The MIP Cancun community will again be out in force on the stage and all its surroundings. Though capacity is reached on the matchmaking so synonymous with the market, our delegate numbers continue to grow to access the wider conference and networking market. It promises to be a very special return to full strength,” added Maria Perez-Bellière, director of MIP Cancun.
