Access is the cornerstone of the Access Canada Summit powered by The Hollywood Reporter—and this year we’re expanding that access with the launch of the DGC Directors Market, a new initiative that puts producers and creators face-to-face with acclaimed directors actively seeking collaborators for their next project.

Whether you’re in development or ready to package, this is a one-stop, curated opportunity to connect with visionary talent to form meaningful, career-shaping creative partnerships.

Registered delegates will have the opportunity to book meetings with the participating directors, as well as with studios, platforms, broadcasters, streamers, distributors, funders, and more as part of the expanded Access Canada Summit Market Access program.

To review additional information about the 2025 participating directors visit our website at: www.accesscanadamedia.com/DGCMarket.

Don’t miss your chance to move your projects and business forward with exclusive one-to-one and small-group meetings at The Hollywood Reporter’s Access Canada Summit, taking place from September 8 – 10, 2025 in Toronto.

Access Canada Summit will spotlight Canada’s vibrant content industry on a global stage, fostering dialogue, discovery, and deal-making.  Building on years of producing impactful Canadian industry events, and now in partnership with The Hollywood Reporter, this dynamic three-day summit will continue to spark meaningful connections and unlock new opportunities through cutting-edge programming and exclusive market access.
