E-Space thematic workshops 2015




EUROPEANASPACEImportant appointments organized by Europeana Space project in March 2015!


The objective of Europeana Space is to increase and enhance the creative industries' safe use of digital cultural content available in online repositories, by delivering a range of resources to support their engagement. This will help unlocking the business potential of digital cultural heritage.


Both events are free entrance upon registration and stakeholders representing European creative industries, technology-based enterprises, the cultural heritage sector and higher education are warmly invited to join.
