Aalto Creative Demo Day

4.12.2024 | 13-17.30 (UTC +2 / EET)
Online & Marsio Stage | Otakaari 2, Espoo


Welcome to Aalto Creative Demo Day where this autumn’s creative industry pre-incubator participants take the stage to pitch their business concepts in front of an expert jury. The teams’ versatile startup ideas relate to fashion, extended reality, design, architecture, digital modeling, makerspaces, gamification, film industry, AI, and interactive art.

On top of showcasing the work of our pre-incubator participants, this event celebrates the launch of the Aalto Creatives program which will start in early 2025. It is the rebranded version of Aalto Digital Creatives which encourages applications from all sectors of the creative industries without the need for a digital aspect.

At this event you have the opportunity to meet representatives from some of the key players in Aalto University’s startup ecosystem. Come and talk to the people from Aalto Ventures Program, AaltoES, Aalto Startup Center, Junction and Design Factory to find out how you can benefit from their services and events on your entrepreneurial journey.

Following the stage program, we welcome everyone to stay for snacks, music and networking. Registration is free, but mandatory. Places are limited, so act fast to secure your spot.
