Onassis Digital & Innovation

The Onassis Foundation’s Digital and Innovation initiatives aim to foster an extrovert program in the field of digital arts, especially those relating to the creation of immersive storytelling and employing Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Through the Onassis ONX program (Onassis Extending Realities) which includes an artistic incubator in Athens and an artistic accelerator in New York at the Olympic Tower in Manhattan, Onassis Stegi seeks the development of original artistic and creative content in digital arts and at the same time the empowerment of artists, so they are in a position to produce artistic, societal, and economic value, safeguard their works’ sustainability, ensure their autonomy, and amplify the impact their work might have. Since its launch in 2020, members of Onassis ONX have presented their work in numerous festivals worldwide, such as the Tribeca Film Festival, Sundance, SXSW, Ars Electronica, IDFA, and most recently in the 80th Venice International Film Festival.

In creating ephemeral places, we celebrate all that is fleeting; the singularity of memories, and the energy of an unrepeatable moment. In networks, we treasure communal thought and reaction, focusing on the ‘now,’ as the ‘here’ is blurred.

Through Plásmata, a series of public space events, Onassis Stegi creates a world-class art program on the digital, emphasizing the multitude of identities, the connection of the local with the global, and the investigation of the climate crisis and its consequences
