IFM Startup connects startups and scaleups with capital, facilitating deal-flow for attending investors and venture capitalists. We are seeking out Europe’s top XR companies looking for early stage and series A investment to take part in this event. The selection of startups will be determined by assessment from our partner venture capitalists. Chosen companies will be invited to do a live pitch, followed by 1-on-1 meetings.
Academia has been the production engine of more than 90% of innovation in the domain of VR and AR. Most are well validated scientifically, rooted in deep research, theory and empirical work. Yet, only few diffuse into real-life applications in VR/AR. The mission of IFM Research is to bridge the gap between academia and industry. Introducing VR/AR researchers to a network of entrepreneurs and corporate and institutional investors to support and expedite the ‘make-it-happen’ process.
IFM Content is an opportunity for financing, distribution, and connection to potential partners for content creators. 10 narrative projects are invited to VRDays to present their unfinished content to industry partners and decision makers to help realise these creations. We connect buyers, distributors, investors, co-production partners, and platforms to take 1-on-1 meetings with project teams, and listen to them present a live pitch. IFM Content is a partnership between VRDays in Amsterdam and IFFR Pro in Rotterdam. Together, we are combining our festival resources and industry reach to present a unique offering in the International XR ecosystem. Enabling artists to connect with the industry, and allowing narrative XR content to thrive.
If you are a creator, a startup or a researcher working on a project, get the opportunity to take part in IFM! Application deadline is October 8, 2021.
