Collaboration for Sustainability
Making Cultural and Heritage Projects Viable Long Term
Organised by the Sense of the South West Consortium of Big Lottery Fund (NOF) Projects
Friday October 8th 2004
Hilton Hotel, Bath
Delegate cost: £95 + VAT (£80 + VAT for one representative of each Big Lottery Fund (NOF) digitisation project)
Booking deadline: Thursday September 30th 2004
Conference overview:
Many cultural and heritage organisations have benefited from substantial national funding for digitisation projects. As projects draw to a close, they face a common problem: sustainability.
To reflect the importance of this problem, we have brought together a team of eminent speakers. They will address the key issue of how to attain sustainability of digitisation and similar projects.
The conference provides an opportunity to:
* review the financial and technical problems of sustainability;
* share experiences and solutions with major organisations at regional, national and international levels;
* identify areas of potential income;
* network with those experiencing the same issues.
Who should attend:
The conference will be relevant to all in receipt of, or bidding for, project funding; managers of cultural and heritage organisations; project managers; project leaders; technical staff and fund raisers.
Early booking is recommended as a high level of interest is anticipated.
