Opening Remarks

We’re kicking off Seriencamp Conference with a keynote that cuts right to the core: why seri- ous investment in Germany’s and Europe’s creative industries isn’t just nice to have — it’s essential.

Dr. Markus Schäfer shares his perspective on what it takes to future-proof our sector, why backing talent and cultural storytelling is a strategic move, and why it’s necessary to build a stronger, more resilient creative ecosystem.
