The UK Screen Investment Programme (UKSIP) 2026, delivered by White Label in partnership with the Hertfordshire Growth Board, is now well underway, bringing together investors, industry leaders, local authorities and government to shape the future of the UK screen sector.
Since our last update, we’ve continued to build momentum across the programme, convening our Steering Group and delivering a series of national engagement moments that are helping to shape this year’s agenda.
Recent activity includes a Local Authority & Studios Group meeting at Elstree Studios, bringing together senior representatives from across industry and local government to strengthen collaboration around studio infrastructure, investment coordination and regional growth. We also joined partners at MIPIM in Cannes as part of the UK Cities & Partners programme, contributing to discussions on creative infrastructure and long-term investment models for the sector.
At UKREiiF 2026, UKSIP hosted a roundtable exploring how digital infrastructure is enabling modern industrial and creative growth, with insights spanning data, production ecosystems and regional opportunity. Read the full report here.
The programme continues to connect globally recognised assets including Sky Studios Elstree and Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden with emerging and established clusters across the UK, reinforcing the screen sector as a major driver of economic growth, skills and innovation.
Looking ahead, all activity builds towards the UK Screen Investment Summit on Thursday 19 November 2026 at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly – the flagship moment in the UKSIP calendar, bringing together senior decision-makers from across the sector.
The Summit programme is now live, and tickets are available at the early bird rate of £375 +VAT until Friday 26 June, after which prices will increase. A public sector rate of £325 +VAT remains available throughout the campaign.
