The selected concepts, and their teams of writer and producer, will each be paired with a consultant writer and two commissioners. They will test, collaborate and develop the concepts transforming them into full bible ready-for-commission.

Six teams were selected to develop fictional TV series based on real-life events. Each team included a writer, producer, and content provider, and was paired with a broadcaster, sales agent, consultant writer, and emerging writer. This setup boosted the development of the fictional stories with strong support from content providers and their field expertise, while also creating a space for collaboration and networking across borders.

Eight teams from different countries, each with their own concepts for a TV series (early stage of story development), were selected to participate in three immersive camps across Europe (France, Sweden and Spain), where they develope, tested and tried out their projects, turning them into concepts ready to be commissioned for further development in collaboration with broadcasters, sales agents, audience experts, audience panels and producers attached to the projects. Additionally, format consultants worked with each team to explore the potential of adapting their story into another format, such as a game, web series, podcast, feature film, social media or another audiovisual narrative format.​

The participating broadcasters and commissioning editors will exchange strategies, market trends, working methods and collaborative processes in a room of trust while taking part in the boosting of the selected ideas and concept.
