What worlds can we imagine when art, technology, and innovation come together?

How can new technologies become tools for creation, critical thinking, and social change?

The Onassis ONX and ACE Summer School: Innovation, Tech & Culture returns for its third consecutive year, inviting creative professionals to explore the harmonious coexistence of art, technology, and sustainable entrepreneurship.

The Summer School: Innovation, Tech & Culture (July 1–13, 2026, at the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (ACE), Athens University of Economics and Business) aims to bring together the worlds of Culture and Digital Arts with the fields of Technology, Artificial Intelligence, and Entrepreneurship.

Products that change the narrative. Worldbuilding for creators and entrepreneurs.

The focus shifts from the product itself to the story that precedes and underpins it. By building universes and worlds around the products, participants move beyond the physicality of the object and create comprehensive experiences that extend around and beyond it. Products are not treated merely as objects, but as starting points for the creation of worlds that are activated through audience participation. Thus, the audience, from being the final recipient, becomes an integral part of the experience and helps shape it.

The aim of this year’s Summer School: Innovation, Tech & Culture is to challenge traditional product design and marketing practices by leveraging new technologies, art thinking, and innovative design.
