Creative Armenia is excited to introduce the 20 creative teams that will take part in Artbox Incubator, which provides comprehensive support to creative ideas with potential for commercial success.

From March 25 to May 25, throughout the 8-week program, the selected individuals and teams, representing cutting-edge projects in visual arts, design and beyond, will be joined by top-notch mentors and renowned cultural leaders from Armenia, the Netherlands, Denmark, Malta, and Estonia to develop various aspects of their creative projects – from market analysis and business model strategy to production strategy, marketing strategy, and pitching. Upon completion of the program and the development of complete project packages, up to 10 incubated business ideas will be awarded grants totaling €100,000 to become functioning businesses.
