Pact launched the 2007 Independent Production Census at a special presentation and event, held at 4 Hamilton Place, London on Monday 30 April 2007.
The Census, sponsored by KPMG and Bank of Ireland Corporate Banking, is a key piece of original research, which provides an economic and financial analysis of the UK independent production industry and some hard facts and information about the value, health and sustainability of the sector.
Included in the report is information around: production activity by sector and region, revenue and profit growth, commissions by genre and broadcaster, and revenues from IP exploitation.
The information for the Census was gathered by research company Digital-i, between September and November 2006. Pact member companies were asked to supply data for their most recent financial year. 138 companies took part in the survey, representing 73% of the revenue of the industry.
The Census retails at 250 for Pact members and 500 for non-members. Please email Mary Iseghohi for your copy.
