Open Calls

The munich creative business week (mcbw) has been Germany’s largest design event for over a decade and a leading meeting point for the national and international creative and design community. For one week, Munich becomes a hub for design: exhibitions, talks, workshops, installations, networking events, and many other formats transform the city into a stage for creative ideas, innovation, and exchange. Designers, companies, students, and design enthusiasts come together to share perspectives, create new impulses, and shape the future of design.

Now it’s your turn: Help shape mcbw 2027 with us! Our Open Calls are now open and invite submissions from a variety of target groups. Bring your ideas to life and make this year’s theme SIGNAL — NOISE an experience.

We invite you to become part of mcbw 2027.
