In 1989, MIDEM Organisation was acquired by Reed Exhibitions and took the name of Reed MIDEM. For 50 years MIPTV has been at the heart of the innovation that shaped the future of television.
For the opening of the 50th MIPTV, Bernard Chevry was accompanied by Reiner Moritz (Director/Producer Poorhouse International – UK) and Roger Deshayes (Producer/Distributor RDI – France), two MIPTV pioners who have attended every edition of MIPTV since 1963 and were presented with a MIPTV Jubilee Award.
