In 2027, the Institut national de l’audiovisuel will have the honour of hosting the FIAT/IFTA World Conference, the global network of media archives, in Paris.

This 2027 edition, which will mark the 50th anniversary of the Federation, will bring together more than 300 media, audiovisual and heritage professionals to discuss the major challenges of preserving, enhancing and transmitting audiovisual archives.

Founded in Paris on 4 October 1977 at the initiative of INA and several European media organisations, FIAT/IFTA today brings together more than 150 member organisations worldwide: public and private media, national archives, sports federations, educational and academic communities, cultural institutions and research bodies.
