EXCLUSIVE INVITATION FOR GOVERNMENT BODIES · INDUSTRY CHAMBERS · ASSOCIATIONS · REGIONAL BODIES · COUNCILS · UNIONS · GUILDS

Building India's Digital Entertainment ecosystem, Together

We warmly invite India's government bodies, industry chambers, associations and regional industry bodies — including councils, unions and guilds — to join an open, collaborative movement that bridges the gaps across the entertainment industry and elevates Indian talent on the national and global stage.

The core idea

GTB has started an industry-wide initiative to bring India's government bodies, industry chambers and associations together under one verified digital ecosystem. We are not a competitor to any body; we are a collaborator — built to complement and strengthen the work each of you already does for the entertainment industry.

Our commitments

What We Build Together

Eight commitments that shape this initiative.

Industry Unity

Bringing India's many bodies under one collaborative initiative.

Verified Networking

Identity-verified, fraud-free connections across the industry.

Growth & Visibility

Pan-India and global discoverability for every member.

Digital Transformation

A modern digital backbone for a historically analogue industry.

Support for All Categories

From debutants to industry veterans, every craft included.

Long-Term Development

Sustained investment in the industry's structured growth.

Global Recognition

Surfacing Indian talent and infrastructure to the world.

Ethical & Transparent

Open standards, audit-logged engagements, no hidden interests.

The three Nos

The terms are simple

A Movement, Not a Transaction

There is no money in either direction — no fees, no commissions, no commercial obligations. This is industry development, not business.

Open to All, Tied to None

Every collaborating body retains complete freedom to engage with any platform, programme or initiative. We do not seek exclusivity; we seek alignment.

Voluntary & Flexible

Recognition under this initiative is non-binding and can be adjusted or withdrawn by either side at any time. A relationship built on shared purpose, not paperwork.

Eligibility

Whom We Welcome

Four categories of bodies are eligible. We name categories — never specific bodies — until an MoU is signed.

Government Bodies

Ministries, statutory bodies and government departments connected to India's entertainment industry.

Industry Chambers

National industry chambers and apex industry bodies representing the Indian media, entertainment and creative economy.

Associations, Councils, Unions & Guilds

Pan-India and regional professional associations, councils, unions and guilds across actors, directors, writers, technicians, producers, distributors, music creators and allied crafts.

Regional Industry Bodies

State-level film chambers, craft federations and regional industry councils representing the entertainment workforce across India's states and regions.

How it works

How We Begin

01

Reach Out

Your body or GTB initiates a warm conversation. No paperwork, no commitments — just a first introduction and a shared agenda.

02

Discover Shared Ground

We meet to discuss where your work and ours align, and where GTB's digital ecosystem can support your members and your initiatives.

03

A Voluntary Mutual Recognition

A simple, non-binding letter of mutual recognition. Either side can adjust or step away anytime, on goodwill.

Our Promise — This initiative is not an endorsement, not a commercial partnership, not a joint venture, and creates no financial obligation in either direction. It is open, voluntary, mutual recognition — built on shared purpose. A full draft of the recognition letter is available on request.

Get in touch

Let's Build, Together

GTB respects the independence, protocols and autonomy of every body we engage with. We never claim endorsement — what we build together is mutual recognition in service of a shared cause: India's entertainment industry.
