We have some exciting news for women in the film/television industry! The first ever Women in Animation World Summit will be held at this year’s Annecy International Animation Festival in France.

The Women in Animation World Summit is a one day-long symposium of panels and discussions on topics relevant to women in the animation world. It will feature executives and producers from well known companies such as Warner Animation Group, Illumination Entertainment, Studio Canal China, Oriental DreamWorks and Walt Disney Animation Studios. 

Taking place on June 12 at the Imperial Palace Hotel, the event will be co-hosted by Women in Animation (WIA) and its sister group, Les Femmes s’Animent (LFA), as well as Walt Disney Studios, the Centre National du Cinéma et de l’Image Animée (CNC), the Société des Auteurs et Compositeurs Dramatiques (SACD) and Hiventy, all in conjunction with MILFA 2017.

NALIP is thrilled to see organizations coming together to create a space for women in animation, as there is a low representation in the industry. We hope to continue seeing an increase in inclusivity throughout media.
