Purpose

Screen Australia, in partnership with Ausfilm, are convening a delegation of Australian screen creatives to travel to Partner with Australia (UK) to encourage early-stage creative connections, foster meaningful relationships and B2B partnerships for Official Co-productions made under the Australia/UK Co production treaty.

Overview

Partner with Australia (UK) is a new initiative taking place in London from 16-18 June 2026. The program will bring a curated delegation of Australian creatives and businesses to the UK for three days of targeted industry engagement. Through roundtables, keynote and panel discussions, and structured networking sessions delivered in partnership with key UK industry bodies including the British Film Institute (BFI), Film London and Pact, the initiative will create direct pathways for co-development, production and broader collaboration between the Australian and UK screen industries.

This funding aims to support Australian producers and writers/creators - who have proven experience with Official Co-productions or have completed projects of comparable scale, and who can demonstrate strong success and clear traction in the UK from recent credits - to pursue new co-development and co-production opportunities for projects made under the Australia/UK Co-production treaty.

Up to 20 production companies and up to 10 screen writer/ creators will receive funding of up to $10,000 each towards travel, living and accommodation in UK to attend Partner with Australia (UK) and to use it to leverage other related opportunities in the region.

There is a funding cap of $10,000 per application, whether the applicant is an individual (including on behalf of a team) or a company.
