MIP LONDON Extends Doc + Factual Pitch Deadline

MIP LONDON has extended the submission deadline for the 2026 Doc + Factual Pitch to January 13.

Four selected finalists will pitch live on stage, presenting their projects in front of an international jury made up of France Télévisions’ Caroline Behar, National Geographic’s Lauren Billingsley, ZDF’s Kristina Hollstein, SVT’s Mikael Österby, NPO’s Nathalie Windhorst and Table 41 Entertainment’s Francesca Johnson.

The pitch is aimed at creators and producers seeking financing for projects in development. In order to be eligible for submissions, the projects must be either “early stage” (up to 25 percent financed) or “in development” (25 to 75 percent financed), in their first season and never pitched before at a festival/market or to buyers prior to MIP LONDON 2026.

The Doc + Factual Pitch session will take place on February 22 on stage at the IET London: Savoy Place.
