Resumee of the Free Culture Incubator Programme

Chaired by Michelle Kasprzak (uk) and Li Zhenhua (cn). With Ela Kagel (de) and guests.

Together with a selection of guests of the Free Culture Incubator, we would like to sum up the results and insights this project has generated during the past days:
What have we learnt about the cultural enterprise of the future and how can we continue to use and disseminate these insights. What can become of the Free Culture Incubator? Is it enough to have a toolkit for creative start-ups or is there a potential for a true infrastructure? And if so, under which preconditions could such an infrastructure work?

Part of the Free Culture Incubator.
