Focus: Future Communities

The ongoing pandemic has once again shown us the importance of communities. How and where can networking and collective creative activity take place in the future? With Creatives for Vienna this year, we focus on the realisation and further development of concepts on the topic of “Future Communities”. For this, we are awarding implementation grants of 7,000 euros per project.

We focus on establishing newly defined spaces, worlds of experience, production processes and associated new business models.

Creatives for Vienna subsequently hooks up on last year’s idea competition. We received over 700 ideas from Vienna's creative industries - including concepts for the use of public space, collaborative work, local production and sustainable business. The second part of the competition now focuses on the realization and further development of concepts. 

The competition

From March 1 to June 8 we invited all Viennese creatives, visionaries and thinkers to participate in this competition of implementation. The further development and implementation of projects from the first round of the Creatives for Vienna-ideas competition could also be submitted. We sought submissions from the following fields:

• design & fashion
• media & publishing
• animation, film & music industry
• architecture & city planning
• multimedia, games & app development
• the art market
