Since 2012, organisations across Europe have been developing collaborations at the nexus of Science + Technology + ARTS.
This space aims at gathering the articles, papers, reports and toolkits produced in the frame of the S+T+ARTS initiative, as well as productions that translate the results of residencies between artists, technologists and scientists.

Considering past STARTS experiences and the needs of the STARTS Community, in 2022, STARTS Prize launched the STARTS Cross-Fertilization Program, a program designed to support STARTS Prize recognised teams to further develop, scale up and exploit their projects. The teams had the opportunity to meet and discuss with high-level experts their ideas, projects and business plans. This e-book results from this Program, sharing with the whole STARTS Community and beyond some of the knowledge and tips offered by the high-quality experts involved in the STARTS Cross-Fertilization Program.
This brochure is designed to showcase some of the STARTS Prize’s and STARTS Programme’s success stories and most inspiring examples, as well as the impactful methodologies and approaches the Programme has developed over the years to trigger interdisciplinary and collaborative innovation in various fields of society.
Exploratory analysis to the power of attraction of Science + Technology + Arts collaborations initiatives. To better know the STARTS Community, assess the STARTS initiative performance and its potential to grow, we organised a study to assess the STARTS initiative and other initiatives promoting collaborations between science, technology and arts.
A report providing information on the main challenges and opportunities that should be considered to foster policies and programmes dedicated to art, science and technology as a driver for innovation.
Toolkit with practical guidance on collaboration practices. It was produced in the frame of STARTS (Ecosystem).
Roadmap presenting the “STARTS style” to design, launch, monitor and assess sci-tech-arts collaborations (residencies), including practical information and inspiring examples from STARTS projects to the different collaboration steps.
E-publication of the Regional STARTS Centers involved in Repairing the Present, summarizing the project’s methodology and processes, learnings and conclusions to serve future Regional STARTS Centers, as well as inspire policymakers in designing more initiatives that support science, technology and the arts.
Brochure produced in the frame of STARTS RESIDENCIES – VERTIGO.

This Tech/Art Transfer Toolbox has been designed by the Re-FREAM project as a reference document, which could be of interest to both artists and sci/tech experts.
This Manual has been created during project Re-FREAM as a tool to support Art/Tech co-creation practices during the 9 months residency period funded by the projects.
Over three years, artists, designers, scientists and industry experts entered into the Re-FREAM co-creation processes. They strived to develop fashion based on shared values, shared processes and shared cultures. Read more in the Re-FREAM Manifesto.
RECODE FASHION transfers the knowledge created in Re-FREAM, a collaborative research project where selected artists and designers teamed up with a community of scientists to rethink the manufacturing process of the fashion industry.
