EIT Culture & Creativity has launched its first acceleration programme for 2024-2025, an intensive online/hybrid course developed to empower companies in the cultural and creative sector in international and global markets.

The result of a collaboration between the EIT Culture & Creativity communities and professionals in the field, this initiative is looking for 30 companies with at least three years of activity in the areas of fashion, architecture, cultural heritage, audiovisual, games, and digital technologies to join an eight-week training programme (worth €20,000). During this period, the initiative offers a series of lectures, workshops, mentoring from experts in the field, networking opportunities, and the chance to join the prestigious ‘100 to Watch’ list.

The 6-10 most successful participants in this residency will also be able to join an additional 12-week programme designed to support advanced growth, private funding, and shareholding opportunities.

Applications for the open call are free and are open until October 6. Learn more about how to participate in the programme at www.eit-culture-creativity.eu.
