On March 2nd, during the PhotoVogue Festival, the recipient of the MPB Grant will be officially revealed. Selected by MPB and PhotoVogue, one artist will receive a €5,000 voucher to spend on used photo and video gear, a tangible investment in their creative future. The announcement will be a key moment of the festival, and attendees are invited to join the celebration and discover this year’s grantee in person.
MPB is the world’s largest online platform for used photo and video equipment, making it simple, fair and accessible to buy, sell and trade camera gear. Founded in 2011 by Matt Barker, MPB was built on the belief that great kit shouldn’t cost the earth. Today, the company serves photographers and videographers across the UK, US and Europe, recirculating more than 615,000 cameras, lenses and accessories every year to keep equipment in use for longer and creativity flowing. Each piece of gear is individually inspected by specialists and sold with a warranty, ensuring that choosing used never means compromising on quality. By extending the life cycle of creative equipment, MPB actively reduces waste and the carbon footprint of the photo and video industry — proving that used doesn’t mean used up.
MPB is proud to support the festival’s Women by Women initiative, which champions the female gaze and elevates a globally diverse community of image-makers. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to making visual storytelling more inclusive, representative and accessible, while supporting the next generation of photographers and videographers shaping the industry.
