The Spark – Incubation Programme 2025, launched by EIT Culture & Creativity, is designed to support aspiring entrepreneurs and early-stage innovators in the architecture and cultural heritage sectors. The programme offers individuals and teams the opportunity to develop their business ideas, validate their market potential, build a minimum viable product (MVP), and compete for financial prizes at the Demo Day. Participants will benefit from an all-expenses-paid, in-person kick-off bootcamp in Europe, weekly online entrepreneurial training sessions, personalized mentoring and strategic coaching, and free membership in the EIT Culture & Creativity Community during the programme. The programme runs for 8–10 weeks, starting in mid-September 2025, and culminates in a Demo Day in December 2025, where top-performing participants will receive prizes awarded at the Demo Day: 1st Prize (x2): €10,000; 2nd Prize (x3): €7,500; 3rd Prize (x3): €5,000. The maximum EIT funding for prizes in this call is €57,500.
