Name Paola Corsini
Professional Area Founder HAB & Dramatic Rights Specialist
Company HAB - Dove i libri diventano spettacolo HAB is the first Italian agency dedicated exclusively to the audiovisual rights of books. It’s HAB with an “A” because it’s unique in the Italian landscape—a hub for stories carefully selected to be pitched to producers and screenwriters, stories that vary in genre, audience, style, and tone. It is also a “Book Adaptation Hub,” where publishers and authors can entrust their narratives to be presented in a targeted, effective, and professional manner to the world of audiovisual production. A go-to resource for scouts and production companies seeking stories to adapt into animation and live-action for both children and adults. A hub with an “A” that always puts adaptation at the center, surrounded by a safe and reliable space built on listening, hospitality, and trust—where stories for the screen find home, expertise, and care.
