In a bid to consolidate our activity, we created a new department, in February 2010, whose mission is to find international funding for documentaries that are co-produced by our television channel.
The objective of the Pre-Sales department, which is based on the ARTE label and our international expertise, is to strengthen our ties with programme managers all over the world, helping them in their prospecting for documentaries that are international in scope and that fulfil ARTE's demanding criteria, on the most sought-after subjects (history, society, science, discovery, art, fashion, music etc).
