4iP has announced a partnership programme that should allow just about any organisation to join the 4iP network at some level, as long as it has proven itself to be ambitious, innovative and sympathetic to the principles of the 4iP fund.
If you’d like to discuss how your organisation can get involved, drop us a line at .
The four main levels of partnership are:
Global media partners: Channel 4 is already in dialogue with international platform partners (such as Google and Bebo).
Regional development partners: to date a range of key regional partners have signed up or expressed interest, in areas such as the North East, the South West and Northern Ireland.
Strand partners: this is centred on arts, science and public service bodies that may wish to pursue a particular strand of 4iP-supported activity.
Project partners: these are either commercial companies/brands or public sector bodies that may wish to join the fund on a project-by-project basis as ideas, concepts and platforms emerge.

Great to meet so many of you at 2gether08. I’m excited by all the possibilities of 4IP. Congrats for sponsoring such an inspiring event. It’s great to see Channel4 being so progressive.

I especailly liked the session on Phobias. Felt sorry for the guy who was afraid of balloons. Unlike the other fears of spiders etc, it wasn’t taken that seriously by the audience. Made me wonder about the irony involved in being afraid of something that is intrinsically comic. Is there a term for this?
