Feedback of Participants

2019

„The programme was so well organised and very useful for both the participants and mentors. I found it to be a really inspiring group of people that I might not otherwise have met. It was such a warm atmosphere, highly professional but also friendly and supportive and everyone felt comfortable to share so much helpful personal experience and lessons learned.“ 
(Wendy Mitchell, ProPro Expert 2019, Film Journalist, Moderator, Festival Consultant/Screen International and ScreenDaily)

„I still marvel at the mix of experts and participants, and the support from and for all. Thank you again for this amazing opportunity. Also, the mix of participants was incredible. I’ve never before experienced such a harmonious and supportive women only group/workshop. I learnt and grew a lot this past week.“
