Hi all
Good to see many of you at UKMW14 recently. I hope you enjoyed the preview of Digital Culture 2014, our annual survey of how arts and cultural organisations use technology. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or reflections on what you heard.
The research sheds light on digital activities, impacts, skills and barriers, and we hope it provides a solid foundation for discussion and planning across the arts and culture.
We're continuing our analysis ahead of the full launch on 2 December. Please keep a look out for the publication, which will include a fact sheet just for Museums, and a portal for exploring the results.
If you're in or around London on the evening of 2 December, we'd like to invite you to join us at Nesta HQ for a glass of wine and a discussion of the findings. The details are below.
With thanks and regards,
Tandi

EVENT INFORMATION
We'd like to invite you to the launch of Digital Culture 2014 - an evening briefing on evolving technology use in the arts.

It will be held here at Nesta at 6pm on 2 December, in partnership with the Arts Council England and the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
As well as presenting the key findings, we'll take a look at some organisations who are experiencing the changes first hand, and mull over the challenges we share. As 2014 draws to a close, it's a perfect time to look back on the year, and consider what this new research suggests about the future.
We hope you can join us for a Christmas drink and celebration of a jam packed #artsdigital year.
