With a population of half a billion people across Eurasia, Central Asia and the Middle East, business development in this region is a core operating objective for many global suppliers of TV programs, formats and thematic channels.&rdquo;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&ldquo;In the not so distant future, we will see Western Asia, like other emerging regions, transition from massive importers of westernized content to producers of regional programming,&rdquo; he continued. &ldquo;This is already happening through format franchises and more recently via dramas. Our plan is to reinforce the relevance of DISCOP events for cross-border, regionally-focused, deal-making. Catering to the specific needs of local producers and distributors is part of that plan.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Nearly 500 companies have already signed up to attend the next edition of DISCOP Istanbul, which is set for March 5 to 7, 2013.
