The DC Industry Training Days 2025 was a rousing success! We were joined by the 2025 Masterschool cohort and three alumni as they presented their brilliant projects to a room full of international industry executives. Each pitching team has been preparing for 10 months through mentorship, workshops, market and networking opportunities, all culminating in a pitch at the DC Industry Training Days, where they'll receive invaluable feedback and requests for 1-on-1 meetings.

Selected from the 2025 Masterschool pitching cohort, three awards were presented by our industry partners. Each award offers incredible marketplace opportunities to each project. Congrats to this year's winners...

A huge round of applause is owed to all 15 Masterschool projects who pitched at the DC Industry Training Days, and received not only excellent feedback, but an incredible number of requests for one-on-one meetings with producers, funders, distributors, and other industry executives who can help propel each project farther.
