CULTURAL CATALYST PROGRAM

Make your idea funding-ready with Marc Spiegler and the ArtNova team. Our newly launched Cultural Catalyst Program is a 10-week course designed to sharpen your idea - for a commercial startup, a new NGO or even a governmental initiative - and make it ready to pitch. Candidates for the course must have their concept approved before acceptance.

The program starts with a collective introduction by Marc Spiegler in March. Then each group will have up to 3 one-hour virtual sessions with Marc to discuss market fit, positioning strategy, SWOT, allies and rivals. You will also have up to 2 one-hour virtual meetings with finance experts from Art Nova, the parent company of Art Market Minds, to build the business plan. At the end of the program, you will present your project virtually to a jury of potential investors and art-world professionals during the Funding Pitch Sessions in June.

Best-in-class projects will also have the opportunity to pitch IRL in front of The Art Business Conference audience in one of our locations (New York, Paris, London, or Hong Kong).
