OFFICE SPACE FOR
MEDIATECH STARTUPS
The MediaTech Hub Space offers affordable office space for media technology start-ups in Potsdam Babelsberg
MediaTech Hub Space
The MediaTech Hub Space offers media technology start-ups affordable office space at the Potsdam-Babelsberg location. On 4 August 2021, the jury selected the winning teams.
In September 2021, the five selected startups moved into their new offices at UFA. For 9.50 euros per m² net (including electricity, water, heating, internet, 24⁄7 access, reception and meeting room), the startups become part of the MediaTech Hub and gain valuable access to networks from the media and digital world, research and teaching and the start-up scene.

Benefits
- Affordable office space in the heart of the media city Babelsberg at UFA

- Access to 12 nationwide Digital Hub Initiative locations and the benefits of being part of the de:hub initiative (e.g. visibility or co-working across Germany with the Startup Card).

The winners of the competition to move into the Space are BottleAd, freque, Klangchat, MARKTKOST and ROADIA.
BottleAd has established a completely new type of advertising space when dispensing empty bottles directly at the POS and is therefore the perfect partner for consumers, retailers and advertising partners.
freque is the first online music marketplace that optimises the workflow of film and agency teams. Team members can use different music options directly in their films, try them out and communicate with their team about the music selection. Once they have decided, they can then license the music directly in freque. And all this in just one browser window.
To adequately express emotion or meaning, it takes more than text messages, stickers and emojis. Traditional messaging is missing an essential part of our emotions and human nature - the voice and the music. Sound chat allows anyone to add music to voice messages to create and send original chat messages.
MARKTKOST is the first digital canteen alternative for SMEs. Convenient, delicious, varied - and completely without packaging waste. Learn more about market food in the MTH Unboxing.
ROADIA aims to develop globally deployable, scalable, DSGVO-compliant road safety systems to minimise the number of traffic accidents and enable ideal traffic flow in modern smart cities.
More about the MTH Space
In order to promote the start-up climate in Potsdam, we want to use the space to create attractive and, in a regional comparison, affordable office space starting at 17 square metres and also enable founders to exchange ideas directly through collaborative working. Here, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) young media tech start-ups are supported by being able to rent attractive office space on one floor at reduced rates until the end of 2022. In this sense, the MTH Space stands for innovation and the realisation of ideas (DO!).
Anchored in the ecosystem of the MediaTech Hub Potsdam and in close proximity to established companies and scientific excellence, the aim is to promote direct networking between start-ups, entrepreneurship and science. In addition, a coaching offer and personal contact provide support on relevant topics in everyday start-up life.
In 2019 and 2020, the Hub made individual office spaces in the MediaTech Hub Lab available to selected startups at reduced rates. The winners of the second competition to enter 2020 were Cinuru Research, CI Hub, feelbelt, visionYou and Vragments.
