Programs and projects regarding analysis, support and training for the development of New Media content and markets.
In 1997 the initiative to promote Austrian multimedia producers was established as the Prix MultiMediaArt which the following year was awarded the status of the Austrian State Prize. The Staatspreis für Multimedia & e-Business henceforth has been the explicit benchmark for all Austrian producers.
EUROPRIX was started by the Austrian presidency in 1998 as an EU member states initiative and was supported by the European Commission DG Enterprise and Information Society, governments of other countries in the European Union and private industries. Its aim was the organisation of the pan-European Multimedia Content Award. The contest and related activities continue to be organised by the contest office in Salzburg and its partner organisations in major regions in Europe, in association with leading professional multimedia associations.
Over the last years EUROPRIX has established a platform for the development of new media industries in Europe and professional networking of producers and designers. EUROPRIX today is not a one-time event: It is a strategic project to develop the fast-moving multimedia markets in Europe.
As well as the General Contest, ICNM activities stretch to EADiM the European Academy for Digital Media, EUROPRIX Summer Schools. A number of related activities are also organised by our EUROPRIX Partners in 26 European Countries.
In 2002 the EUROPRIX Top Talent Award kicked off to promote even more the young and up coming producers of Multimedia throughout Europe.
Since october 2002 ACTeN focusses on anticipating content technology needs and is a cooperation between our european networking partners in Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, France, Slovakia, Czeck Republic, Romania and Austria.
Two projects started in 2003. X-melina offers an intensive training program in cross media and new technology for young professionals and producers working with convergent media, in the broadcast and in audiovisual or new media industries.
The increasing worldwide activities incorporated by the World Summit Award and the growing range of themes treating the most innovative developments made it necessary for ICNM to find a new form of organization and a new home.
