The visit of Media technology incubator company is an open-eye and impressive experience. Poland government’s policy assists start-up companies to spend less money and has creative office space to develop products and services.
When we arrived in the company’s lobby hall, there was a crew of people working on film shooting. My first impression about the company is available and flexible. It is an open space for everyone who has talent and enthusiasm about media technology products. After a walking tour around the company confirms my first impression. This incubator company is founded by government, and only receive money from office rental fee. It was such an honor for us to talk with two start-up companies’ entrepreneurs in media technology section. One is an education app, and the other one is a medical VR content company.
Through conversations with start-up media companies’ executives, I found that “media technology” is an idea that longer stay with the idea of entertainment and culture. Education app and medical VR content indicates that the future of “media” is cross fields and can be applicable in every aspect of people’s life.
Poland's media companies, instead of engaging in the trending of social networks, search for more opportunities in various dimension. This development strategy of media industry expands the idea about "what media can do" in my mind.
