Story

In 1982, the company Forum Media Akademie GmbH was founded as a specialist publisher and conference organizer by Michael Scheele and later taken over by Eberhard Scheele. The family ties between the partners probably led to joint projects with Blickpunkt:Film (Ulrich Scheele).

In 2017, International Film Partners (IFP Entertainment GmbH) acquired the company. Bernie Stampfer took over the management and made the transition smooth through his personal network. On this basis, his successor Julia Tanz continued to run the company and gave priority to expanding the range of continuing education courses.

During the Corona pandemic, the company suffered a massive drop in sales due to the event bans that were imposed. After Julia Tanz left the company for personal reasons, Markus Vogelbacher took over the management and led the company through a consistent restructuring. After digitizing all offers, the company was renamed Ensider.net GmbH and registered with an independent branch in Berlin. All of International Film Partners ' digital services were then bundled in Ensider.net .

To mark the company's 40th anniversary in 2022, selected companies were accepted as Ensider:Partners.

In 2023, the networking event " 25th Film Scene Bavaria on Ice " and the conference " 25th Film Industry Forum " at Medientage München marked important milestones. The circle of Ensider:Partners was significantly expanded. The networking events " Production Breakfast Berlinale " and " Production Breakfast Cannes Film Festival " complemented the " Talent Summit " conference at the Munich Film Festival , as well as the " Forum Media Conference " via LinkedIn Live.
