How it works

Once upon a time…
The year was 2008 when the non-profit organization Media Evolution saw the light. During this time, an environment for innovation and growth in the media industries were missing. Even though Skåne and Blekinge during a long time had been the most driving regions in the area. So, the academy, business and public sectors gathered their forces and finances to form an organization that would ensure that targets were reached - Media Evolution was born.

Now 400 members
The media industries was identified as a priority growth area, and economic frameworks were created for Media Evolution's operations in the first years. Media Evolution was founded and was constituted as a non-profit organization in December 2008. Since then have we created several project, built a house, designed digital meeting places and venues and offered competence development. We have offered courses, other market creating activities such as matchmaking and process design for collaborations across disciplines and industries and networking events for almost 25 000 participants a year. We are delighted and proud that 400 members is a part of our community to allowing synergies and innovations for the southern regions.

This is what we do, today
Media Evolution enables organizations and individuals to share, learn, think in new ways and adapt together in the age of digital transformation. The house and the meeting point Media Evolution City in Malmö become the framework for our entire business. 500 people works in the house daily, and also a couple more hundreds of people who visit the house everyday for meetings, to participate in eductions or to have lunch.

We create the conditions for growth, collaboration, and competence development
The Conference is an internationell conference which gather approximately 3000 participants from all over the world to talk about society questions, media development, digital behavior and to explore complexity and trends in the digital world. The development moves faster than ever and Media Evolution strives to be on top of it. We are a platform in the center of the fast change and fuel, which paves the way for new business models, new products and new services. We do this by offering and allow for skills development and innovation processes, and by matching the different needs and examinations available in our member network.

We want to open your eyes to the digital changes in the world. We will pursue pioneering projects to create new markets for the media industries and for our members. We will also work to position Skåne and Blekinge as a forward-looking and innovative region that contributes to an open, tolerant and sustainable society.

Nothing would be possible without pur members, that each day contrite with commitment, content and smartness.
