Heritage Horizons Europeana Project Week

 

The ‘Heritage Horizons Project Week: Shaping the common European data space for cultural heritage’ will take place from 25 – 29 November 2024.

This event – organised by the Europeana Initiative – will put the spotlight on the diverse and innovative projects encouraging reuse, innovating in technologies and enhancing sustainability which enrich and enhance the common European data space for cultural heritage.

Project Week will showcase their efforts while facilitating collaboration and connection, accelerating knowledge sharing and shaping new project opportunities. Sessions will highlight the role of digital technologies in preserving and engaging with cultural heritage, advancing social inclusion, encouraging reuse and promoting sustainability, as well as on leading technical developments in the data space.

Each day of project week will have a focus relevant to the data space and cultural heritage sector and spotlight the projects which focus on that particular topic.

On November 27, the EUreka3D and EUreka3D-XR projects will be showcased at 10am.

Join the project week and discover new innovations, collaborate with your peers and learn from experts about the latest developments in the data space and the efforts which underpin them.
