Join us for an In Conversation with... on SEPTEMBER 1 to find out what TF1, BBC Children's and WarnerMedia Kids Latin America are looking for next, and how you can get your project in the door.

As EVP of Acquisitions and Co-Productions for TF1 Group, Daphné de Beauffort negotiates and executes all pre-sale, co-production and acquisition deals for channels including TF1 and TFX, as well as selecting and acquiring content for SVOD platform TFOUMAX and AVOD service MYTF1.

She also oversees the development of kids programming in collaboration with TF1’s business units (Licensing, Games, Music, Distribution and Advertising). 

Patricia Hidalgo is Director of Children’s & Education at the BBC. She develops and implements creative and editorial strategy for BBC Children’s services across all platforms, with a focus on the strategic future direction of media consumption and business models.

As part of her remit, Patricia heads up the two most popular kids channels in the UK—CBeebies and CBBC. And she also leads the BBC’s Education division, overseeing its output of content including in-house productions, co-productions and acquisitions.

Patricia has a strong industry track record and has been the

driving force behind some of the last decade’s most successful kids shows. During her last six years at Turner, she was responsible for the production of award-winning series such as The Amazing World of Gumball and The Heroic Adventures of the Valiant Prince Ivandoe.

Prior to her stint at Turner, Patricia spent 15 years at Disney, where she held a variety of senior positions in Spain, Italy and the UK.

In her role as Director of Acquisitions and Co-Productions for WarnerMedia Kids Latin America, Jessica Bishop oversees internal content deals and negotiates third-party acquisitions, co-productions and original productions for the regional division’s kids brands and platforms. 

A highly accomplished, multilingual executive with more than 10 years of broad-based experience in management, commercial strategy, production and international distribution, Jessica is currently based in Miami.

Prior to joining WarnerMedia earlier this year, she was Director of

Formats and Co-Productions at BBC for Latin America, USH and Canada. Jessica worked on scripted and unscripted content in this role, and spearheaded the exponential growth of iconic entertainment shows The Great Bake Off and Dancing with the Stars, growing both brands' exposure in the region through multiple local commissions.

Having worked in all major territories and on many different sales teams, Jessica has a deep understanding of every aspect of international distribution. Her love of children’s content was cemented when she worked on distributing the BBC’s preschool channel, CBeebies. 

Jessica has a Bachelor’s degree in Spanish and Portuguese Literature from the University of Edinburgh.
