On Wednesday, June 21, the NPO Fund, in collaboration with Scriptbank, is organizing the third edition of Team up: an introduction between public broadcasters and new, talented screenwriters with diverse backgrounds, education, or writing experience.

During this meeting, the drama departments of the participating public broadcasters explore, together with the scriptwriters, what their role could be in the public broadcaster's drama offerings. To support scriptwriters in their development, the NPO Fund offers various schemes. For instance, the Team Up scriptwriting scheme makes it attractive to include new writers in existing teams.

Participating public broadcasters
NTR, EO, VPRO, KRO-NCRV, BNNVARA, HUMAN, AVROTROS, 3LAB.

Team up
After two successful editions in 2022, new scriptwriters found their way to the KRO-NCRV Zapp series Broodje Aap and to the writers' room of Tentje Plof, a children's series that lead writer Tijs van Marle is developing with the EO. In addition, various writers are in talks with the broadcasters about developing their own plans. With a third edition, the NPO Fund and Scriptbank continue their commitment to the development of new, talented scriptwriters.

New screenwriters can register via Scriptbank up to and including Monday, June 5.
