A connector of culture, technology and economic opportunity.

IranCTech is the English identity of the National Foundation for the Development of Cultural Technologies, a development-oriented organization advancing cultural and creative industries through cooperation, innovation and market linkages.

Who we are

From isolated capabilities to connected value.

Cultural and creative industries have tremendous intellectual, artistic and economic potential. Realizing it requires more than a single training program, platform or financial instrument.

The Foundation focuses on enabling the relationships through which knowledge becomes applied technology, technology becomes a viable solution, and solutions create sustainable businesses and market value.

Our approach connects specialists, entrepreneurs, investors, universities, public institutions and organizations with complementary capacities.
