Germany: Funded International Students Innovation Camp, Palomar5, Berlin

Become one of the 30 young minds and realize your ideas during a 6-week-innovation camp in Berlin in Oct/Nov!

What is Palomar5 and what we are trying to do:
Palomar5 is a project founded 2009 in Berlin. This non-profit initiative forms a network of creative people with the will to design and engineer the working world of tomorrow. Palomar5 wants to break with prevailing paradigms and build new structures that can satisfy the needs and possibilities of our young generation.

From October until end of November 2009, young visionaries will come together in Berlin’s spectacular Malzfabrik. They will live and work in a unique experimental space for six weeks and get input and feedback from inspiring experts from business, culture, and science. The Palomar5 camp wants to overcome the limitations of think-tanks and barcamps: Ideas should not only be thought, they should come alive. An Idea could end up as software, a scenario-game or a prototype model. During the Palomar5 summit following the camp decision makers from companies and thought leaders in our society will be invited to dive into the camp participants’ temporary working world and to get inspiration for their organizations.

Apply for the camp today!
We look for ambitious minds between 18 and 30, who want to change the way of working, push the boundaries and seek a space to put their ideas into practice with others.

It doesn’t matter what background, culture or country you come from – so you may be an artist, a hacker or a scientist, as well as a college drop out or an entrepreneur.
