Network Ireland Television is the first Irish-based development and distribution company, which was established in October 1995, with the objectives of providing a sales and marketing service for television programme makers and film producers in Ireland, and an inward distribution service for international distributors to domestic Irish broadcasters. In the 11 years since it’s start-up, Network Ireland Television has now accumulated a catalogue of over 1,000 hours of quality English language programming and short films from a range of Irish Producers and has quickly established itself as the major Distributor of Irish programming, outside of the domestic Irish Broadcasters. Indeed, the company has also attracted support from two of the Irish-based Broadcasters (UTV, the ITV franchise company in Northern Ireland, and Teilifis na Gaeilge - the National Irish Language Broadcaster) and are providing them with an effective distribution service internationally, for their own range of programmes, along with select shows from BBC (N.I.) and TV3. This ultimately facilitates NITV's inward selling of programmes to these broadcasters. Network Ireland Television is currently selling to over 100 overseas broadcasters, Home Video/DVD distributors and Inflight Entertainment companies.
