The programme is aimed at early-stage start-up teams from all over Europe who have a business idea at the interface between music and tech.

In our application form, we ask for the most important information about your business idea and your team. If possible, please also submit a pitch deck to present your idea in detail. If you have any questions about your application, please get in touch with .

After the application deadline on June 20, 2024, an expert jury will select the most promising business ideas and invite the selected teams to a digital pre-pitch. Here, the jury will decide which four teams will participate in the incubator starting on August 26.

No, you can apply even before the company is officially founded. If you have already officially founded and registered the company, this is not a reason for exclusion.

At least 2 people per team should take part in the programme. We value diversity and welcome all applications - regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic or social background, religion, disability or age.

Ideally, you are still in the early stage, i.e. you are about to launch or have just launched but are not yet ready for the market - because that is exactly where we want to take you together. If you have already completed an accelerator programme, the incubator is probably no longer right for you.
