From Friday 22 to Tuesday 26 September, the Dutch audiovisual industry gathered at the NFF Professionals Programme. During the Conference, various Prof Talks and the Talent Day we discussed the latest trends and policy as well as professional developments within the industry. Also, there were plenty of opportunities to catch up with collaegues and network during the daily Professionals Drinks.

In 2021 the Professionals Programme was all about 'For Real'. What is the new reality that the AV-sector is dealing with at this time? From an ongoing pandemic to intimicaty coordinators, inclusivity, talent development and a possible sector plan - it all came up during NFF 2021.
