OKRE Summit
The OKRE Summit is an invite-only, focused conference bringing together the people who shape what gets made in entertainment and why.
Through a full day of keynotes, talks, panels and curated workshops, the Summit explores how content is imagined, developed, funded and created. Each Summit centres on a defining theme, informed by OKRE Signal’s research and insights, and brings together entertainment professionals, funders, academics, charities and civil society to exchange ideas, share perspectives and explore new possibilities.
With a carefully curated programme, the Summit connects evidence, creative practice and strategic action, creating space for meaningful dialogue and collaboration around the role of entertainment in driving impact.

I want to acknowledge how incredible it is for OKRE to bring everyone under the same roof, from commissioning editors to filmmakers to activists to writers… bringing people together and chatting, showing work and playing clips and talking about what they do as well, actually will eventually lead to change.
