(26 April 2021) – Applications are now open for the first New European Bauhaus prizes, launched by Commissioner Ferreira and Commissioner Gabriel at the project’s conference last week.
The ten prize categories – from ‘products and lifestyle’, to ‘reinvented places to meet and share’ – are all themed around the core pillars of the New European Bauhaus initiative: sustainability, quality of experience, and inclusion.
For each of the ten categories there will also be a specific ‘New European Bauhaus Rising Stars’ strand, open to under-30s. The idea is to support and encourage the younger generation to continue developing new ideas and exciting concepts.
The application period is open until 31 May 2021. Both EU and non-EU nationals can apply, as long as their concepts, ideas and projects are actually developed or physically located in the EU.
Winners will receive cash prizes as well as support to spread the message about their project.
