The development of the local film industry involves the support of the dubbing infrastructure, the opening of new jobs and the stimulation of business in this segment, which is the main priority for the support of the Azerbaijani language in the modern digital space.

Supporting the activity of market participants in the field of cultural and creative industries, as well as improving the production base and promoting sectoral clustering, is a priority for the implementation of that clause.

It was brought to the attention that, in the direction of this activity, research is being conducted on the establishment of a broadcasting platform connecting Turkic-speaking regions and states, and a corresponding work plan is being prepared.

In order to improve the platform and speed up the creation process, the strategic and Business Advisor of the "BBC-Maestro" project, Nina Laricheva and the Chairman of the ATA-Association of Turkic Animation organization, Oktay Yusibov, were involved in the project as specialists.

It was emphasised that the platform, based on a monthly or annual subscription model, is planned to include local and international content (dubbing).
