ABOUT
Fuelarts is a venture studio that specializes in Creative Tech. Originally founded in New York in 2019 by serial entrepreneur Denis Belkevich and Roxanna Zarnegar, the former COO of Christie’s Americas and ex-Senior VP of Artnet, Fuelarts relocated to Miami in 2022 to foster the development of the Creative Tech ecosystem. Fuelarts comprises an accelerator, an analytics arm, and a venture arm.
The journey continued into 2024, highlighted by an academic partnership with the Zurich Centre for Creative Economies (ZCCE) at the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK). From 2024 onwards, Fuelarts transitioned into a venture studio model, also focusing on the development of its IT products and education programs.
The Global Art+Tech Startups Report, published annually since 2022, has earned Fuelarts recognition as experts in the creative community. In 2023, Fuelarts conducted a white-label accelerator at the request of Tezos, providing education and support to 10 new startups for their art ecosystem.
Navigating and Creating Value in Creative Tech
ZCCE, Arcual, and Fuelarts are pleased to present a new summer course at the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK).

The course also marks an important step for the Creative Tech ecosystem, establishing one of the first academic modules in the field to award ECTS credits within the Bologna system.
