By 'creators' we mean a broad group: developers, designers, concept-makers, artists and entrepreneurs who can build immersive applications. Together you form an indispensable link in the chain of professionals and organisations working on innovative, socially relevant IX applications.

Some funding schemes are open to creators directly; others focus on consortia, where you apply together with, for example, research institutions or civil society organisations. Some programmes call for free, exploratory work; others invite you to tackle specific societal challenges.
