Music WorX Incubator

We promote your innovative business ideas at the interface of music and tech.

Music WorX is Europe’s first publicly funded incubator for start-ups in the music & tech sector and was launched in 2011 by the Ministry of Culture and Media of the City of Hamburg to promote the development of innovative business models in the music industry.

We offer effective startup support for founders from all over Europe with innovative business ideas at the interface of music and tech. Music WorX gives aspiring start-ups and founding teams in the early stages of company development the opportunity to put their idea to the test and get it ready for the market. The three-month programme offers financial support, workshops and training, individual coaching, access to the industry and a mentor network as well as flexible coworking spaces. An ideal development space in which the participating teams set their own pace and direction. Over the years, Music WorX has accompanied and supported many successful companies such as Cyanite, Atopia Space GmbH, Soundvest GmbH, NOYS VR and Sofa Concerts on their journey.
