Together with the MediaTech Hub, the Startup Service is hosting the MOVE! Challenge 2026 on November 27 – a compact, high-energy innovation day at the Babelsberg campus. The event brings together interdisciplinary teams from business, academia, and emerging creative talent to tackle real-world challenges in media, IT, XR, film, games, and design — all united by one question: How can we shape the future together?
The Format: Crossover innovation in one day
The MOVE! Challenge is a creative sprint: students, founders, researchers, and companies join forces to develop concrete solutions in interdisciplinary teams — open to bold ideas, focused enough for first prototypes.
Each participating company contributes a challenge — linked to future tech, social issues, or internal innovation needs. Take part and be part of Babelsberg's lively media eco-system.
This event is hosted by the START startup service and funded by the European Union and the state of Brandenburg.
