Witscript and Hyperrate.io took home the prizes at San Sebastian’s 5th Zinemaldia Startup Challenge on Thursday afternoon. Each received €10,000 and access to incubation to nurture their fledgling companies, with the potential to vie for €500,000 in funding.
Speaking with Variety following her win, Hendrikje Wagner CEO of Hyperate.io was delighted with the validation: “Other people think it’s a really good idea and it enables us to move discussions forward.” The startup integrates heart rate data into live streams, events, and games.

A second was to enhance visibility of emotional impact further to facilitate hyper personalisation across a wide breadth of media.
