The S+T+ARTS yearly competition is back to award two innovative projects at the nexus of science, technology and the arts that have what it takes to make a significant impact on economic and social innovation. Two prizes, each with €20,000 prize money, are offered to honor innovative projects at the intersection of science, technology and the arts: The emphasis of both prizes lies on the creative appropriation and employment of technologies as well as the search for unique constellations of collaboration from the STARTS fields.

➕ Grand Prize – Innovative Collaboration
Honors innovative collaboration between industry or technology and the artistic (and creative) sectors that open up new avenues for innovation.

➕ Grand Prize – Artistic Exploration
Honors artistic research and works whose adoption by the arts has great potential to influence or change the use, application, or perception of technology

Winners will be prominently featured at Ars Electronica  and other events of the consortium partners INOVA+, French Tech Grand Provence, Media Solutions Center Baden-Württemberg, Salzburg Festival, Sonar, T6Ecosystems and Kustodie at TUD Dresden University of Technology.
