During this period, participants will receive personalized mentoring and hands-on training to strengthen and shape their projects.

From this group, eight proposals will move on to a second phase focused on entrepreneurship and communication, scheduled for September 2026. Finally, two ideas will be selected as winners and will enter the implementation and acceleration phase, running from October 2026 to May 2027.

Selected projects will receive an initial grant of 5,000 euros, with the possibility of reaching up to 15,000 euros if they are considered mature enough to become fully developed projects.

The call is open to individuals, artists, cultural professionals, non-profit organizations, universities, educational centers, cultural institutions, and culture-driven start-ups. The initiative is developed in collaboration with Adhoc Cultura.

An opportunity to turn an idea into real impact and help the Catalan language grow through cultural creativity.
