TECH.MT X ARTZ ID team up for the artistic community, bringing skills, guidance and opportunities

TECH.MT X ARTZ ID team up to provide skills and resources for the artistic community  through a two day event and a live pitch competition. Bringing together an impressive lineup of International speakers and mentors together with an open call opportunity to live pitch a digital project. 
 
During the past year the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed the perspective and role technology has had on artists, art professionals, galleries and cultural institutions. The artistic community had to shift  and engage with a digital audience, adapt to new ways of communicating, showcasing their work and some discovered new creative processes.
 
In reality Art and technology have always been interrelated, but the lack of physical connection has highlighted the need to understand and work alongside technology from every aspect.
 
This collaboration is aimed at tackling the topics and equip artists and art professionals to manage and handle their practise by reaching international audiences, monetizing online, building their brand through storytelling and understanding new emerging technologies and international art market trends.
