This exclusive, invitation-only event is expected to bring together over 3,500 participants and attendees from around the globe, making it one of the largest gatherings dedicated to entertainment finance, investment, and intellectual property.
The summit aims to create a trusted marketplace where institutional investors, family offices, entertainment companies, and creators can come together to finance the next generation of intellectual property. Doval Bacall, the founder of the Entertainment Finance Summit, envisions the event as the evolution of Hollywood's capital markets, introducing smart money into the entertainment industry.
Key speakers and industry participants include John McGrath, a talent agent from the Independent Film Group / United Talent Agency, and Mark Marxer, the founding chair of TIGER 21 in Boca Raton, Florida. Other notable attendees will include Marti Tirinnanzi, a board member of Intercontinental Exchange, The RBB Fund & Trust; Jonathan Weinberg, a former TIGER 21 executive; Zack Ellison, an investment fund manager from Applied Real Intelligence; and Evan Rahul D'Silva, a financial advisor from Prudential.
Running concurrently with the summit is the 1st Annual Your Script Produced! International Film Festival, which will screen at AMC Century City 15. Selected filmmakers will showcase features, documentaries, and shorts programming before a live audience of moviegoers, producers, financiers, distributors, head of acquisition executives, networks, and accredited investors. This festival is designed to complement the summit, creating a comprehensive marketplace for entertainment finance and investment.
The summit will feature keynote conversations, panel discussions, networking sessions, an exclusive red carpet movie premiere, and curated deal-making opportunities. These sessions are designed to unlock capital for individual projects, slate funding, and other investment opportunities. The event is expected to attract a growing wave of sophisticated capital, viewing entertainment as an emerging institutional asset class.
Doval Bacall Entertainment and Your Script Produced! are exclusively represented by United Talent Agency (UTA). Attendance is highly curated, with prospective participants required to complete an application before registering. The summit is intentionally limited in capacity to maintain a highly curated audience, ensuring meaningful business opportunities and executive-level networking.
This event is not merely a summit; it is the evolution of Hollywood's capital markets. As the entertainment industry continues to grow and diversify, the summit aims to provide a platform for the next generation of intellectual property to find the necessary capital for development and distribution.
