More knowledge, space, financing and innovation for Hamburg’s creative minds – this is the mission to which Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft, an institution of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, is committed. Since our founding in 2010, we see ourselves as a central point of contact for all players in Hamburg’s creative industries. In addition to workshops, lectures and networking events, we also offer individual consulting, coaching, crowdfunding and assistance in financing and finding suitable workspaces for authors, filmmakers, musicians, visual and performing artists, architects, designers, game developers and all other professional groups from the eleven submarkets of the creative industries. Some of our offers and events are expressly aimed at students of creative courses of study.

Inspiring change in perspective

Meeting eye to eye creates space for new perspectives, visionary thinking and innovative approaches. That is why we continuously develop new offers in our Cross Innovation Hub with which we specifically encourage creative and other industries to engage in exchanging ideas. At our hackathons, business minds code with creative artists, in our bar camps, employees from large corporations engage in dialogue with creative freelancers, and in our work shadowing programme, bank executives and design experts look over each other’s shoulders. In our Cross Innovation Hub, we develop new solutions for an increasingly complex world of life and work.
