What we’ve been working on
Programs
We support start-ups, develop prototypes and strengthen innovation skills and knowledge.
Media Lift
The Content & Tech Incubator
Start-ups from our previous batches
musicube
musicube is revolutionizing the search for music with artificial intelligence. The start-up has developed a semantic music search that can be used to answer very individual and almost any search queries.
BotTalk
Publishing in the voice-first world: With its text-to-speech technology, BotTalk supports news publishers in their audio strategy and enables them to place their content and digital products as audio on their website.
Prototyping Lab
5 universities, 20 students and 4 partner companies
Prototypes from our previous labs
KI
A music prediction machine, a filter to identify fake ads and an intelligent database for recipe searches. Students from four Hamburg universities have developed impressive prototypes for SPIEGEL, N-JOY and Bauer Media.
XR
At the first Prototyping Lab, students worked on virtual & augmented reality applications for newsrooms. One of the three teams produced the 10-minute VR live experience “Behind the Moon” for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing, which was published on Spiegel Online.
Content Foresight
Developing the content of the future together
Projects
Health
Together, MaibornWolff, BKK VBU and Carlsen Verlag took advantage of interdisciplinary collaboration and developed an impressive prototype in a very short time: an AR-based app that playfully and individually encourages children to exercise more and adopt health-conscious behavior.
Mobility
A virtual city tour, a seamless travel experience and an utopia of the mobile world in 2034 – the project results of the first edition of Content Foresight show how content consumption could change in the coming years due to changing mobility offerings.
Fast Mover
We support you in developing sustainable solutions and implementing them quickly.
