LABoral_IMPULSA is a collaboration between Gijón IMPULSA, one of Gijón City Council’s main instruments for supporting the development and growth of the municipality’s business fabric, and LABoral Centro de Arte, a cultural entity specialised in producing, disseminating and promoting access to cultural forms born from the creative use of information and communication technologies (ICTs).

Its residency programme explores what could be the potential connections today that open up avenues of creative, work and business development for the new generations.

It is aimed at innovative initiatives related to creative and cultural industries of the digital era, proposing all kinds of new format projects, including those related to environmental, health or food technologies and their impact or influence on culture and society.

The programme offers space and work infrastructures (LABoral’s audiovisual and digital fabrication laboratories), accompaniment, guidance and support in the search for partners, subsidies and grants, as well as relevant connections in our local, national and international network of contacts and collaborations.

We are looking for…

• Creative professionals and initiatives with a clearly defined project, product or business idea that demonstrate new ways of thinking and working.

• Regional, national or international entrepreneurs who wish to develop their career and business activity from the municipality of Gijón.

• Individual professionals and groups of three/four people.

The residencies will have a maximum duration of 9 months and will start from May 2025.
