The World Congress of Science & Factual Producers (WCSFP) is a member-run, not-for-profit organization, dedicated to celebrating the best in science and history programs and other related genres (known in the UK market as specialist factual programming).
The WCSFP will hold its 15th annual conference in New York, USA from November 26 through 29, 2007.
Most recently held in Manchester, UK (2006), Tokyo, Japan (2005) and Toronto, Canada (2004), the Congress has become a must-attend event for producers and broadcasters working in specialist factual television. A robust, 4-day schedule of plenaries, panels, and other creative treatments of leading-edge industry topics such as mock trials, coupled with invaluable networking opportunities. makes the Congress an ideal environment for developing international co-production arrangements and providing the impetus for new and renewed business partnerships.
Both an event and a community, broadcasters, producers, content creators, researchers, academics, journalists and distributors, for over a decade, attend the Congress to immerse themselves in the intellectual debate and the business of the creation of specialist factual television.
