At the Junior.LAB presented by MLP, art and economy enter into a creative dialogue. The results of the discourse, in which young musicians as well as students of business administration participate, will be presented in the 2024 Musikfestival.

Economy and art have much more in common than it seems at first glance. Inspiration, creativity and intuition are central skills both in artistic creation and in the work context of business leaders. In the Junior.LAB presented by MLP, these two spheres will come together starting in the fall of 2023.

Participants include outstanding students of business administration at the University of Mannheim who have been accepted into the Honors Program established in the winter semester of 2023, and the brilliant young musicians of the 2024 Festivalcampus-Ensemble. Beyond excellence in their respective fields, they have the will to actively shape society in common. The projects developed at regular meetings, which are based on social issues, will be presented to the public at the 2024 Musikfestival.
