Labs aims to help selected start-ups gain market traction and scale by working in close collaboration and with the objective of helping them strike a commercial partnership with BBC Worldwide.

    Labs is aimed at helping a select group of companies grow on a global scale, by offering a more tailored and collaborative approach. Our goal is to strategically and commercially partner with and support the most innovative up-and-coming digital media and technology companies that are helping to define the emerging digital landscape.
  • Who should participate?

    Labs is looking for early-stage digital companies focused on the intersection of technology and media and with global reach. We are interested in companies at the point of commercialisation whereby a partnership with BBC Worldwide can help catapult them to the next level of success.
