BoF #60 – Working with Funding Agencies with Dan Lyon (Telefilm)

Welcome back to Business of Film, episode 60. On this episode we talk agency & government and what it takes to develop a strong relationship with these kinds of funding bodies. Dan Lyon, one of Telefilm Canada’s regional directors, takes us through multiple examples of what makes a good pitch.

There’s a lot of topics that we explore on this episodes. We talk about the economics of government fundings, what it takes to develop a good relationship, and certain things that you definitely want to avoid.

Dan is a great ambassador for the agency at large. He speaks very clearly about what works and what doesn’t. And whether you are local to Canada, or based anywhwere else in the world, I can guarantee that there are take aways… especially for investor presentations.
