As part of the City of Gothenburg’s focus on film, Lindholmen Science Park supports innovative development projects in film, television and motion pictures. The overall goal of this is long-term growth in the entire regional film and television industry by promoting stronger producers and idea makers.

 

Apply for project financing

Every year, Film&TV announces three rounds of applications for development support within motion pictures to innovative players (see dates for the respective rounds further down). Before the application procedure, we want the projects applying for funds to define where they are in the development process, as well as why the project is in need of funding.
