Portugal offers a cash-rebate system which is one of the most attractive incentives in Europe. Our team has experience tapping into the funds for producers of international projects.
With a minimum expenditure in Portugal of 500.000 EUR (fiction and animation) and 250.000 EUR for documentaries or post-production, international projects may be eligible for a cash rebate of 25% to 30%, depending on a cultural test and the characteristics of the project.
The main determining factors are: high economic impact in Portugal, expenses made in low density areas, hiring local actors, technicians, services, and suppliers.
Budget for grants in 2019 was at a record high of 20,6 million Euros. Call on us for more details on how we can help your project secure this funding.

Canadian born and raised, James came to Portugal over 25 years ago and fell in love with the country and the people.

Client demand soon compelled him to start a kids agency, a real people agency, and provide full production services.
Inspired by what Portugal has to offer, James has a contagious passion for his work with international clients that brings them back time and again.
