Dear all, We are proud to present the full conference programme of the conference 'Digital Strategies for Heritage' at www.dish2009.nl. DISH is a new bi-annual international conference on digital heritage and the opportunities it offers to cultural institutions. The first edition of DISH takes place in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, on 8-10 December 2009. DISH2009 will host speakers from 11 countries in keynotes, debates, workshops and paper presentations. Among the keynote speakers are Alex Osterwalder (leading thinker on business model innovation), Simone Brummelhuis (The Next Women, Business Magazine for Female Internet Heroes), Josh Greenberg (director Digital Strategies at the NYPL), Andrew Payne (Head of Education & Outreach at the UK National Archives) and Ross Parry (Lecturer in Museums and New Media at the University of Leicester). In the parallel sessions topics like open technology, heritage on the map and the mobile future will be explored and discussed. On 8 December, various heritage institutions in the Netherlands and Flanders open their doors for the DISH participants in pre-conference sessions on site. Learn more about the digital collaboration among 15 maritime museums; discuss the digital projects of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam; join a workshop on innovation for audiovisual archives; hear Matt Adams talk about e-culture; visit some outstanding institutions in the Antwerp network; get an overview of what Europeana is all about; and is it really true: No game, no fame? Get inspired and connected, and join us at DISH2009.
