Goethe-Institut Johannesburg

The Hub@Goethe is situated on the gallery level of the Goethe-Institut's library. There are eight workplaces available for creative entrepreneurs who are working on an innovative and digital project. The seats are allocated according to a "call for applications" for a defined period of six months. The eight hubbers can present their project to the public twice during their stay in the Goethe-Institut's library. They are then encouraged to remain in touch with the institute as "Goethe-Hub alumni". Due to the library's focus on the field of digital games, projects in this area are preferred. The hubbers will be provided with mentoring tailored to their needs, through individual mentoring and group mentoring.
