The key to innovative products and services is an innovative in-house culture. The Media Company Fellowship supports local and regional media companies in Bavaria in further developing their own innovation culture - at management level and on site in the newsrooms.

Together with dtec.bw and the University of the Bundeswehr Munich, you can promote peace in crisis regions through journalism. In our new Media for Peace fellowship program, we'll work with you to develop ways to support journalism in Lebanon and Afghanistan that de-escalates and promotes peace.
