ImMediaTe’s objective is to counteract the high market fragmentation within the digital media and creative sector, one of the fastest growing market segments with an annual turnover of 300 billion euro. The project will assist new ventures in finding and attracting public and private investment, with special attention being paid to international co-financing schemes. ImMediaTe will tackle the fragmentation of the sector value chain

by bringing together all relevant key stakeholders from the entrepreneurial and investment sides and supporting them with facilitators such as regional development agencies and clusters. The project will launch a new European enterprise equipped to create, deliver and maintain an integrated and standardised package of services including finance, education and business support to SMEs in the digital media sector.
