Music WorX 2026: Open Call for Music Tech Startups Across Europe
The Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft has launched a new open call for its Music WorX incubator, inviting startups and founders from across Europe to apply with innovative ideas at the intersection of music and technology.
Running over three months (September–November 2026), the programme offers a comprehensive support framework for early-stage concepts and emerging entrepreneurs in the music ecosystem.
Participants will benefit from:
- Up to €7,700 in financial support
- A stipend for living expenses
- Personalised coaching and mentoring
- Workshops, training sessions, and 1:1 sparring
- Access to an international music tech network
- Flexible participation (in Hamburg and remote)
- Coworking opportunities
The programme is structured to guide participants through key development phases:
- September: Defining focus and direction
- October: Crafting narrative and pitch formats
- November: Building networks and industry connections
Throughout the incubator, selected teams will work intensively on refining their ideas, strengthening their storytelling, and developing compelling pitch formats—while exchanging knowledge with peers and industry experts.
Importantly, all ideas remain the property of the participants, as the programme does not take any equity.
📅 Application deadline: 18 June 2026
