We are excited to see a new initiative take shape: The Trade Department of the Canadian Embassy in Berlin—together with Telefilm Canada and with the support of Animation Germany—has launched the Canada-Germany Animation Lab.

This program aims to deepen co-productions between our countries’ animation industries through a combination of virtual workshops and in-person networking at the Annecy International Animation Film Market (MIFA).

Five producers from each country will have the opportunity to take part in carefully curated sessions designed to foster exchange, strengthen partnerships, and encourage long-term collaboration.

This initiative is another welcome sign that both Canada and Germany are committed to expanding their bilateral cooperation—particularly meaningful in a time of global geopolitical shifts, when trusted partnerships and cultural dialogue are more important than ever.
