SYLLABUS: Media & Art History; Speculative & Interactive Design Theory; Ethics, Art & Technology; Computational Creativity; AI-enabled Tech Development; Innovation & Entrepreneurship (business modeling and product validation); building for speed with venture capital backing; understanding the market and audience; branding, marketing and digital channels; and IP management, licensing and contracts. Participants attend lectures and receive mentorship from keynote speakers of AUEB, the NYU Tandon School of Engineering and Onassis ONX Fellows, plus talks by leading international professionals such as artist-technologists Jiabao Li and Cooper Galvin.

PARTICIPATION: individual application, or as a member of a corporate team or company representative; in-person attendance required; working language English; up to 30 participants.

Residencies take place in Larnaka, Cyprus (5 October - 1 November 2026) and Sfax, Tunisia (5 April - 2 May 2027); resulting works are presented at the Mahallart Festival in Larnaka and the Hors-Lits Festival in Sfax.
