Wer kann sich bewerben?

Applications must be submitted through the EIT Culture & Creativity online submission platform by 16 November 2026 at 17:00 CET.

Following the deadline, applications will undergo an admissibility and eligibility check conducted by EIT Culture & Creativity. Eligible applications will then be assessed by three independent external experts against the published evaluation criteria. Following the individual assessments, a consensus meeting will establish the final external evaluation scores and consolidated comments.

The 35 highest-ranked proposals from the external evaluation will be invited to an online portfolio selection interview with the EIT Culture & Creativity Selection Committee. The next 15 proposals will form a reserve pool for this stage.

Following portfolio selection, proposals meeting the applicable thresholds will be ranked according to their combined external evaluation and portfolio selection scores. Up to 35 applicants may be selected for the 2027 Spark cohort, subject to the conditions and available budget set out in the Call Guidelines.
