Investing in Media
that Matters —
A Gathering at
Sundance Village
To
create a dialogue and excitement among entertainment and investment leaders to
develop, promote, and produce entertainment products with social mission and
environmental themes that impact multiple audiences, increase awareness and
influence positive change in society.
Vision
The
collective influence of private angel investors, funds, foundations,
entertainment executives, producers, directors, screenwriters and actors will
develop a process to:
1.
Pool funds (both
philanthropic and for profit) for entertainment media that include
cross-cultural social and environmental themes dedicated to supporting and
improving society;
2.
Address issues of
distribution and marketing; and
3.
Work together to prove
that socially themed media can be entertaining, informing and commercially
viable. Social messages are limitless
and can include energy conservation, respect for diversity, healthcare
improvements, underserved communities, child labor practices, corporate
responsibility, environmental conservation and human rights.
