The Hubs Alliance is a mobility program that allows cultural and creative professionals of all sorts to expand their workspace to a Europe-wide level. By joining the Hubs Alliance, creative hubs unite their spaces and facilities to create a cross-border workspace, where the cultural and creative professionals who usually work in a single creative hub can move freely, exploring new professional communities and delving into local creative scenes
This mobility program is reserved to the professionals who inhabit a creative hub with a regular ECHN membership. Creative hubs can join the Hubs Alliance in any moment by filling in the form below. By joining the Alliance, creative hubs open their doors to cultural and creative professionals coming from other creative hubs.
The program foresees a budget to support the travel and accommodation costs of the visiting professional up to five working days. In this time, the visiting professionals have the chance to develop their own projects, start new ones and connect with the community of the hosting hub.
Participants will receive a financial support of 1.175,00 € to travel to another ECHN creative hub for up to 5 days.
Cultural and creative professionals can apply via the form below. To be eligible, the candidates should first pick their matching hub and confirm their availability before filling in the application form. You can browse ECHN’s Network Map – you can filter your search according to country, sectors, services and facilities. Make sure to tick the “Hubs Alliance” box! Mobility exchanges can happen only among creative hubs that joined or are about to join the Alliance.
The application form needs to be filled in by the individual professional and should include a detailed work plan for the exchange.
