Call for Proposals - Singapore Media Festival’s Online Creators Event

Call for Proposals - Singapore Media Festival’s Online Creators Event

The Singapore Media Festival (SMF) is hosted annually by IMDA and is one of Asia’s leading media events, bringing together professionals in the film, television, and digital media industries. SMF will take place from 30 Nov to 10 Dec this year. 

Starting from SMF 2023, IMDA is keen to explore a new industry-driven event between 30 Nov and 3 Dec 2023 for the creator economy. We would like to invite interested parties to submit their proposals for the event. The event should help to achieve IMDA’s objectives for SMF and IMDA’s envisaged outcomes for the creator economy. 

Objectives of RFI

IMDA invites interested parties to submit a detailed proposal for the Online Creator Event (“Event”) that can achieve the following:

  • Convene global New Media ecosystem players to grow the reach of Singapore-based players and anchor more global brand investments in Singapore. These ecosystem players include content creators, multi-channel networks (MCNs), influencer agencies, platforms, and other media partners.
  • Position Singapore as the place where brands can have access to local and regional creators & talent agencies in the online space.
  • Provide value to creators that will give them the opportunity to upgrade their capabilities, grow their reach and meet with brands.
  • Deliver a sustainable annual event IP (equivalent to VidCon US) anchored in Singapore as a permanent new media pillar under SMF.
