Boston Museum of Science |
- Partnership: iFactory has served the Museum of Science since 1992. In addition to numerous kiosk projects,
iFactory recently completed work on the Museum’s Quest for Immortality / Ancient Egypt website launch.
Our team helped the educators at MOS by writing content, gathering images, producing multimedia activities, and launching
the entire site in under five weeks — just in time for the spectacular Quest exhibit!
- iFactory is also proud to be completing the soon-to-be-launched
ShellFactory
interactive website and kiosk, where kids can use our algorithm-driven shell growing engine to create their
own fantasy shells.

Ford Foundation |
- Partnership: Since 2001, iFactory has served the Ford Foundation in their mission
to strengthen democratic values, reduce poverty and injustice, promote international cooperation,
and advance human achievement.
- We assisted Ford with refining their mission statement for online usage and in launching a new .org website
with a greatly refined user-interface and look-and-feel.
- Our partnership continues with ongoing support for their site, and with a variety of editorial systems soon to be launched.

Lincoln Institute of Land Policy |
- Partnership: For over three years we’ve worked with
Lincoln to help advance their mission to study and teach land policy,
land economics and land taxation.
- Our first project resulted in a redesign and relaunch of the LILP website
which resulted in dramatically improved download numbers for Lincoln’s online information.
- We are excited to be working on a variety of infrastructure and interactive learning initiatives
for the institute.

Additional Testimonials |
“When WGBH’s in-house web production resources were overstretched,
WGBH Enterprises approached iFactory with this Website project,
which needed to be produced on an accelerated schedule. Our IF
team members not only kept to that tight schedule, collaborating with
us whenever challenges surfaced, but were a pleasure to work with.
This was a truly cooperative, successful experience.”
— Bing Broderick, Site Producer, WGBH Enterprises, Shackleton’s
Antarctic Adventure

Thanks to the time and effort of the team at iFactory,
The White House Project created an online environment that encouraged
visitors to interact with our site and become more involved with our project.”

teachers around the country. It will provide school districts with an excellent
