About PROA, Federació de Productores Audiovisuals

PROA is a Spanish federation of audiovisual producers founded in 2008. In 2015, with the aim of providing better services to its members, PROA underwent an important structural change with an internal organisation based mainly in sectoral associations. The Federation includes over 250 production companies and is still expanding and growing. It's made up of seven associations, being five of them sectorial and the two generalist. Sectorial associations in the Federation are, among others: ProDocs (documentary), ProAnimats (animation), ProFicció (fiction), ProTV (television) and Devicat (videogames). The two generalist associations are APAIB (Balearic Islands) and AVANT (Valencia, Castellon, Alicante). PROA’s Board of Directors is led by Raimon Masllorens, president of the Federation, and is made up of representatives of all the associations. PROA has also a technical team headed by Montserrat Bou, Director. The Federation acts as a mediator and representative, as a strategic agent in defence of the audiovisual sector’s interests both at national and international levels. PROA functions as a lobby before public institutions and other agents of the industry to favour the global positioning of film and video production as well as to increase its visibility through events, conferences and attending festivals and markets. The Federation’s main objective is to create an ecosystem to improve its members´ conditions. In addition to this, it generates a variety of information and training spaces accessible to all of them. To this end, PROA has been working during the last years on a thorough investigation of new forms of audiovisual financing.
