Agadic grants 12,744 euros to the external promotion of Galician audiovisuals

The Galician Agency for Cultural Industries (Agadic) has resolved the fourth and final round of grants for the foreign promotion of Galician audiovisual works and video games for the year 2026, with the awarding of eight subsidies totaling 12,744.67 euros. The decision was adopted by the Governing Council of Agadic on October 30, 2026, and is published in full in the Official Gazette of Galicia (DOG) no. 216, of November 11, 2026, in section III, Other provisions. The official reference of the announcement is CVE-DOG: n033psy1-2159-0o29-bsh5-16mcyffwpxu7.

An open procedure since March

The grants are governed by the Resolution of March 6, 2026, published in DOG no. 57 on March 26, which establishes the bases for the granting of subsidies, on a non-competitive basis, for the foreign promotion of the audiovisual and video game industry of Galicia for the 2026 financial year, under procedure code CT404D. The procedure is processed in order of receipt of applications and until the exhaustion of the budgetary credit, in accordance with Law 9/2007, of June 13, on subsidies of Galicia.

Prior to this fourth round, three award resolutions were issued, published in the DOG on June 10 (no. 107), June 26 (no. 118), and August 18 (no. 155). After those three rounds, a remaining credit was generated across the three modalities which, combined, amounts to 13,145.89 euros.

The resolution now being published derives from the proposal of the director of Agadic dated October 28, 2026, and was signed on October 30 by the president of the Governing Council, José Carlos López Campos; the publication order in the DOG bears the signature of the agency’s director, Jacobo Sutil Nesta, dated November 5, 2026.

Eight subsidized projects and 29 rejected

Between June 4 and October 15, 2026, applications were received which, once completed and verified, appear in Annex I: 37 files. Of these, Annex II lists the eight subsidized applications:

The other 29 applications included in Annex III are dismissed “due to exhaustion of credit.” Among them are the three submitted for video games: Acarino Films, S.L. (2026CD-056, Gamescom 2026), Melgo Cinema, Sociedad Limitada (2026CD-073, IndieDevDay-BCN Game Fest 2026) and Iago (2026CD-080, Portalén-Saga BCN Game Fest).

Annecy, Cannes, Berlin and San Sebastián

The markets and festivals that concentrate the grants of this round are the European Film Market in Berlin, MIPCOM in Cannes, and the Annecy animation festival, the latter with the highest amount, 3,725.36 euros. The list is completed by FID Marseille and Ventana Sur.

The set of admitted applications reveals a broader international agenda, with repeated presence of The Industry Club of the San Sebastián Festival, Iberseries Platino Industria, the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia, Seminci in Valladolid, the CinEspaña Festival du Film Espagnol de Toulouse, and EAVE Marketing. The list includes production companies such as Maruxiña Film Company, S.L., Frida Films, S.L., Mordisco Films, S.L., Elefante Entertainment, S.L., Sétima, Sociedade Coop. Galega, Meteórica Cine, S.L., Casa de Tolos, S.L. and Sintagma Films, S.L., as well as freelancers such as Cristela and Ricardo.

Deadlines for appeal

The resolution ends the administrative route. Against it, an optional appeal for reversal (recurso de reposición) may be filed before the president of the Governing Council of Agadic within one month from the day following its publication in the DOG. A contentious-administrative appeal may also be filed directly before the court of first instance, Contentious-Administrative Section, of Santiago de Compostela, within two months. The resolution will also be notified to the interested entities as a supplement to the publication, which produces the effects of notification according to article 45 of Law 39/2015, of October 1.

The publication of this fourth round closes the 2026 exercise of program CT404D with a practically exhausted balance: of the 13,145.89 euros available, Annex II distributes 12,744.67 euros. For Galician production companies and studios, the result depicts a very strained call, in which the order of entry of the applications determines access to the money and in which video game initiatives were left out due to lack of credit.
