The Advisory Board
The Advisory Board of CIIIC – Ambassadors for IX in the Netherlands
The CIIIC Advisory Board consists of 24 carefully selected members.
As representatives of the IX community and ambassadors for IX in the Netherlands, they play a vital role in maintaining strong links with the industry. The Advisory Board provides both solicited and unsolicited advice on strategic and content-related matters to the CIIIC programme team, ensuring that CIIIC’s content, activities, and outcomes align with the needs of the sector.
The Advisory Board is made up of makers (creatives, developers, producers), researchers, education specialists, and commissioners.
The Board meets in full at least twice a year in person and may invite observers to attend. Members are appointed for the entire duration of the programme (2025–2029). For more information, please email: adviesraad@ciiic.nl.
