MSCA

The Falling Walls Lab Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) is a pitch competition organised by the European Commission in cooperation with the Falling Walls Lab. 15 selected MSCA fellows will present – in 3 minutes each – their research topic, innovative project, social initiative, business model, or idea through a video pitch to peers, a jury made up of experts from academia and business, and the general public.

The Falling Walls Lab MSCA competition will take place online-only on 30 September 2021. Before the competition, participants will take part in coaching sessions to practise their communication and storytelling skills, get tips for video presentations and speeches and receive personalised advice from a professional coach. Competitors will be assisted to record a professional video pitch.

The Falling Walls Lab MSCA will nominate three finalists plus there is an audience prize. All finalists will get a prize.

The call for applications is currently open for ongoing MSCA fellows at the application deadline 4 July 2021. All information on the application and eligibility criteria can be found in the online announcement.

ScreenME - Enhancing excellence in screen media entrepreneurship

The Horizon2020 twinning project ScreenME has as its objective to enhance excellence in screen media entrepreneurship at Tallinn University (TLU). To do so, ScreenME has established a network of universities across Europe that aim to improve research into and teaching of entrepreneurship for the screen media industry. ScreenME will develop a teaching course and will kick off research initiatives and projects on entrepreneurial activities in media organisations. The research group on ‘Studies in Media, Innovation and Technology (SMIT)’ of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) is partner in the network and is involved in two cross-cutting activities of the project: support for early stage researchers and developing stakeholder involvement.
