Start Art Week 2024

In the page's words:

START ART WEEK is the first start-up and professionalization event with a focus on independent actors and initiatives in the cultural and creative industries. With regard to founding and developing a professional existence, various formats, from keynote speeches and workshops to conferences and networking events, address the diverse topics and entrepreneurial challenges that are essential at the beginning of a career or when implementing an innovative project idea.

The START ART DAYS have been expanding our previous activities for a year now. The one-day or multi-day block events focus on a specific topic and offer the opportunity to respond more quickly to current needs.

Our overall project relies heavily on the empowerment principle - helping people to help themselves.

Participation in the events is free of charge. The knowledge formats are dedicated to the following topics in particular:

• Cultural & creative market - current positions & developments
• Business start-ups, company forms, law & taxes
• Distribution & business development
• Marketing, positioning & communication
• Personal development, positioning & resilience
• Financing & funding
• Business development, project planning & professional organization
• Digitality & digitalization
• Social commitment, initiatives and projects for the common good
• Innovations, technology & processes

Our target group are professional artists, initiatives for the common good and independent players in the cultural and creative industries. The focus is on those who are at the beginning of their "professional" activity and/or are not yet sufficiently established.
