CRAB is the future rural creative hubs community.
Think maker labs in barns, coliving in cottages, and pop-up galleries in forgotten towns.
Right now, we’re scouting Europe’s most unexpected innovators – and putting them on the map.
Tracking village spaces where tech and creativity solve real problems. Spaces which don’t think only what happens under their roofs but keeping young people in town with local tech jobs, turning empty barns into places that boost the whole community, and teaching skills that cut energy costs for everyone nearby.
Check the map of CRAB spaces here.
In February 2026 we will be inviting another 20 spaces to join a 2-day event in Sende, Setubal.
