Notts TV is owned and most of its programming is produced by a consortium of four Nottingham based media-related organisations: Nottingham Post, Nottingham Trent University, Confetti Media Group and Inclusive Digital. Other local independent producers also provide content for the channel.

From opening in 2014, the BBC contributed to the funding of Notts TV for the first three years.[2]

Ofcom has granted the channel a 12-year licence.[3]
