The 35th International Emmy Awards took place on November 19, 2007, at the New York Hilton Midtown in New York City and hosted by American actor Roger Bart. The award ceremony, presented by the International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (IATAS), honors all programming produced and originally aired outside the United States.

The International Academy presented the International Emmys in eleven program categories as well as two special Awards. The Founders Award was presented by Robert De Niro to former U.S. Vice-President Al Gore for his role in launching cable/satellite channel Current TV and his ongoing effort to alert the world to one of the great challenges of our time, global warming. The Directorate Award was presented by actress, Carole Bouquet to Patrick Le Lay, Chairman and CEO of France’s TF1 Group for guiding the growth of the TF1 brand from a traditional commercial television broadcaster to a multi-media organization that is a pioneer in many of the emerging new digital platforms.
