Now - perhaps more than ever - is a moment for the museum sector to look
outwards and see the opportunities for collaboration.
At a time when the sector's governance is being re-shaped, the funding
landscape re-formed and individual services and institutions
restructured, the drive for joint ventures and partnership have become
more relevant than ever. In particular it is co-operation with the
wider arts sector and with the commercial world that seem to demand
attention and offer exciting possibilities for everyone.
Alert to this, Culture24 have brought together professionals from across
the creative industries to reflect upon and share their experience of
working digitally with cultural sector partners. Through a series of
roundtable discussions, this day-long meeting will explore some of the
evolving models for online collaboration and discuss the existing and
perceived barriers and divisions between different sectors and the
public/private worlds.
Those in conversation will include:
Andrew Nairne: Director for Arts Strategy, Arts Council
Laura Scott: EMEA External Relations, Google
Spencer Hyman: CEO & Founder www.artfinder.com
Andy Budd: Director of user experience at Clearleft
http://clearleft.com/
Jane Finnis: Director Culture24
There will also be a special trip to Brighton's wonderfully unique Royal
Pavilion and Museums site, with their new Digital Development Officer
Kevin Bacon.
Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
