Announcing Our Supporters
The advertising production industry is undergoing a transformation, with a growing demand for stronger, more direct connections between brands and production companies. In response to this shift, the APA has launched Production Unplugged, a new initiative designed to foster collaboration and bridge the gap between brands and production partners.
To kick off this initiative, Production Unplugged will debut with a major event on May 1, 2025, in London. The event will bring together 400 industry leaders, marketers, and production experts for a full day of networking, knowledge-sharing, and creative collaboration, across six zones. These Zones are being sponsored by some amazing companies who are committed to the Production Unplugged initiative.
