HACKING + PITCHING FOR A BETTER BALTIC SEA 2021
Vi gentager succesen – i år også med et intensivt hackaton!
Er du iværksætter inden for de kulturelle og kreative industrier – og er du interesseret i at arbejde på tværs af landegrænser og sektorer med brandaktuelle udfordringer inden for bæredygtighed og grøn omstilling?
Har du lyst til at møde og netværke med andre ligesindede virksomheder, eksperter og inkubatorer, der arbejder med bæredygtighed inden for de kreative industrier?
Så se med her!
For tredje år i træk afvikler Dansk Kulturinstitut, Filmby Aarhus og Lifestyle & Design Cluster (HACKING +) PITCHING FOR A BETTER BALTIC SEA, hvor vi i år kombinerer international networking, hackaton, pitching konkurrence, kreative indslag og meget mere!
Iværksættere fra rundt om Østersøen inviteres til København og Aarhus for sammen at komme med deres bud på, hvordan man kan gøre Østersøregionen til et bedre sted at leve med udgangspunkt i FNs verdensmål.
Det hele løber af stablen d. 13.-14. september, det er muligt at hoppe med online til hovedaktiviteterne i Aarhus, og ellers så dækkes rejse og ophold for deltagerne.
- 13. samles vi i København til en række valgfrie præ-aktiviteter, der blandt andet vil indbefatte et besøgsprogram til lokale grønne virksomheder og inkubatorer såvel som et kick-off event for et fremtidigt samarbejde inden for de kreative industrier med både EUNIC-medlemmer (nationale kulturinstitutter i EU) og CCI-aktører i Danmark og Skåne.
- 14. går hovedarrangementet i gang i Aarhus, hvor du med andre kreative iværksættere kommer til at arbejde sammen for at finde konkrete løsninger på, hvordan teknologi og kreativ ”storytelling” kan bidrage til bæredygtighed og grøn omstilling i livsstilsbranchen. Du vil arbejde på en konkret problemstilling, der defineres af vores mentorhold, som også vil guide dig igennem processen såvel som dele ud af deres egne erfaringer og viden. Og, til sidst, har du mulighed for at pitche din innovative ide til en international jury – og muligvis vinde en inspirerende præmie!
HACKING + PITCHING FOR A BETTER BALTIC SEA 2021 er en del af projektet Creative Ports, som er støttet af EU’s Interreg Baltic Sea Region Program 2014-2020.
