Our Mission
Promoting media innovations - and making them visible
We are the regional initiative for the Hamburg media and digital scene. As a hub within Hamburg’s media ecosystem, our mission is to support the innovation-driven collaboration between media and digital companies, universities, their students, and local movers and makers. We believe in open innovation processes as a way to boost successful business ideas, entrepreneurial spirit, and knowledge acquisition.
Our goal is to further strengthen and expand Hamburg’s top position as a media city.
Hamburg: City of Content
It’s hard to find another city home to so many media companies of national and international significance. In addition to SPIEGEL, Rocket Beans Entertainment, New Work SE, Jung von Matt and Online Marketing Rockstars, numerous global players such as Google, Snapchat, Facebook and Twitch operate their German business from Hamburg.
The media, digital, and creative sectors are key industries for the city of Hamburg – and they play an important role in maintaining and developing social and cultural public discourse, far beyond the city.
