The winning project will land a development deal with Talpa Studios to further develop the project into a fully realised format proposition with international market potential. The studio is not looking to purchase the idea outright, it is looking to collaborate.

The winner will also receive £20,000 worth of marketing across C21Media’s digital, print and event products to support development and pre-sales promotion of the show.

The competition aims to discover and develop a brand-new hit format in one of the following categories: Primetime Entertainment, Reality & Social Experiment or Factual Entertainment.

Selected finalists will be invited to pitch live in front of a panel of esteemed judges and delegates at Content Europe in Lisbon on April 21, 2026.
