Since 1996, the year APIT (Independent TV Producers Association from Portugal) was founded, the independent television production sector has been undergoing profound changes. Challenges have multiplied, taken on new forms, and demanded increasingly agile and innovative responses.
In a constantly evolving market, both within and beyond borders, independent producers have been able to adapt to more demanding rhythms, driven by the experience, talent, and collective effort of professionals in the field.
Today, representing more than 55 members, APIT remains focused on playing a prominent role in the Portuguese audiovisual landscape. We remain committed to offering close, practical, and flexible support, honoring the trust that producers place in the Association. We value creativity, the art of storytelling, and the ability to create content that inspires, engages, and makes us believe that the best is always yet to come.
Since day one, APIT’s mission has been to simplify the daily lives of independent television producers. Supporting our members and driving growth in the sector, both in Portugal and worldwide, is at the heart of what we do.
Aware of the potential of Portuguese productions, we continue to reinforce the aspects that are part of APIT’s essence: sharing knowledge, exchanging experiences, and actively participating in national and international events. We promote exclusive initiatives, such as meetings, training sessions, and projects dedicated to our members.
We work to play an active and relevant role in the day-to-day lives of independent television producers, the true protagonists of the audiovisual sector.
