Good Pitch is a unique live event which the BRITDOC Foundation hosts in different cities across North America and Europe, bringing together independent documentary filmmakers with specially invited foundations, NGOs, philanthropists, governmental agencies, campaigners, technology innovators, brands, broadcasters and media to form powerful alliances around ground-breaking social justice documentary films. These alliances aim to raise financial commitments from new investors, for production, completion and audience engagement spend, as well as creating new distribution opportunities to reach larger European audiences.In 2016, Good Pitch Europe will be returning to the Nordic countries, where the first filmmaker workshop will take place in Finland and the second filmmaker workshop as well as the live event will be held in Stockholm, Sweden.In short, Good Pitch Europe 2016 will:1. Create networking opportunities online and offline, for filmmakers to meet and partner with foundations, NGOs, philanthropists, campaigners, governmental agencies, brand and brand agencies.2.
