The MTH Potsdam -
The only digital hub for media technology
The place for
media technology innovation
The MediaTech Hub Potsdam brings together the local expertise of media tech specialists and visionaries, researchers, companies, start-ups and universities. Right in the heart of the historic film location Babelsberg and the UNESCO Creative City of Film, the MediaTech Hub Potsdam aims to promote innovation and strengthen entrepreneurship.
Under the umbrella of the MediaTech Hub Potsdam, projects and activities are realised that advance media technology innovations and connect actors with each other. With initiatives such as the MediaTech Hub Accelerator, the MediaTech Hub Space or the annual MediaTech Hub Conference. With these, we offer individual support and networking opportunities for start-ups, companies and institutions.
The MTH Accelerator was founded in 2019 as the first accelerator programme in Brandenburg. The Accelerator offers start-ups a six-month support programme to help the companies reach the next level.
The MTH Space offers start-ups discounted office space directly in the heart of the media city at UFA GmbH since 2021. The companies become part of the MediaTech Hub and gain valuable access to networks from the media and digital world, research and teaching and the Gründer:innen scene.
The MTH Conference is the only B2B event on media technologies in Germany. Video and audio-related technologies are rapidly changing the way we live and work - in film, TV, media and all other industries. Tech executives, decision-makers, innovative minds and creatives from all over the world meet here every year.
Germany’s Digital Hub for MediaTech
In 2017, MediaTech Hub Potsdam was selected as one of 12 Digital Hubs in Germany - the only one with a focus on MediaTech. By combining the know-how of established companies with innovative start-up ideas and scientific excellence, the Digital Hub Initiative of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection promotes the culture of innovation and new digital business models.
The Digital Hub Initiative -
Twelve hubs, one digital network
The Digital Hub Initiative connects SMEs and corporates with new innovation partners from science and the start-up scene. With this initiative, Germany is strengthening its position as an attractive digital location and as one of the world’s leading digital ecosystems. The initiative is funded by Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action.
There are a total of twelve Digital Hubs in Germany. Together, these form a strong network that enables the exchange of technological and economic expertise, programmes and ideas. At each Digital Hub, start-ups, companies and research come together to find answers to the challenges and opportunities of digitalisation.
As part of the Digital Hub Initiative, the MediaTech Hub has been integrated into Germany’s digital ecosystem and the associated national and international network since 2017. As Germany’s only digital hub for media tech, we are creating the innovation hub for media technologies - for a more efficient, inclusive and creative future.
