At FOCUS 2024 three Conference stages of thought leadership discussion and insight featured 40-minute panels, keynotes, interviews and masterclasses from vital voices from across the industry.

​We were also excited to introduce a brand-new format to the show: 10-minute 'In Brief' presentations. From Groundbreakers to Craft Masters,  Just One Change to What's Next? these TED-style sessions offered deep dives into a range of subjects.

The conference programme is developed in consultation with an advisory board featuring representatives from leading industry bodies, including Pact, The Production Guild, BFI, BFC, UK Screen Alliance, ScreenSkills, Directors UK and Advertising Producers Association. It is presented in association with media partner Variety and we are delighted to welcome new Conference Sponsor Shinfield Studios.
