FEG is the UK’s public/private strategy body that is focused on film exports. SPI conducted two assignments for them in 2009/10 that involved members, stakeholders, and others being surveyed.

For the UKFC’s Monitoring and Evaluation department, SPI has analysed, for internal use, various UKFC activities to assess their impact on the UK’s film ecology.

We are major sponsors of Screen International’s Annual Film Summit, for which we invite speakers to attend and which we moderate.

SPI created a development strategy for this innovative ‘virtual’ archive containing material from 100 years of Northern Ireland history.

SPI has been hired to manage a review, over a three year period, of the UK Film Council’s £3 million fund to support access to moving image archive material. The work has involved design and construction of a toolkit to enable long-term review of the progress of activities funded by the programme.

SPI was engaged by Hammer Film Holdings Ltd to provide a valuation of the HFHL film stock.

Flame TV is a television production company to whom Jonathan Olsberg has been giving corporate and strategic advice to them for the past several years.

Jonathan Olsberg participated in the teaching of the CASS Film MBA. He worked with students on a number of areas and helped organised a number of other guest tutors to participate in the MBA.

SPI has provided advisory services relating to the intention to create a new fund to invest in feature films. The services required have been twofold; firstly to provide advice on the business and investment strategy for the fund and, secondly, to assist in the preparation of a business plan or prospectus-style document, that articulates this strategy.

In early 2010, SPI was commissioned by UK Film Council to produce a report that would assist the UK Film Council Board in its deliberations on a possible new paradigm for building UK-based film companies of scale (where film production is a major element of the business model).
