The Wavelab Incubator enters its sixth round. Starting in November 2025, the program will again support tech startups in the fields of music, art, and media. The focus is on flexible offerings tailored to individual needs – from in-person weeks in Munich to digital workshops, coaching, and active network access.
During three intensive in-person weeks, participants receive team coaching, pitch training, and access to experts from culture, technology, and business. The program is complemented by regular digital workshops on startup, culture, and technology topics. Individual coaching and sparring sessions as well as mentoring matches are also on the agenda. Coworking in Munich’s art district and a digital Slack workspace foster exchange and peer learning.
Networking is a key priority at the Wavelab Incubator: participating teams benefit from access to cultural institutions, technology companies, investors, funding organizations, and potential customers.
Teams of at least two people with an innovative, technology-driven business idea and clear connection to music, arts, or media are sought. The founding does not need to be completed, but an MVP should be within reach. Applications are possible until September 15, 2025. Requirements include a short introductory video, a pitch deck, and a financial plan. Selected teams will be invited to video calls afterwards.
Further information and the application form are available on the Wavelab Incubator website.
