Creator Economy Summit
Connecting Digital Creators with the Screen Industry
We're combining the power and knowledge of established film and television professionals with the momentum of the rapidly growing creator economy to launch a one-day program during the 2026 AACTA Festival: the Creator Economy Summit.
This event connects both sectors, giving creators unprecedented access to traditional media decision-makers and providing the entertainment industry with a better understanding of audience building, evolving content formats and new revenue models.
The program developed in partnership with Changer and presented by Australian Academy of Cinema Television Arts (AACTA), will be announced in January 2026 alongside the opening of registrations.
