What does the future hold for cultural heritage data? What skills, tools, standards and infrastructure are needed to make our ‘Data Dreams’ a reality? And how can Kulturpool help with this? Join the discussion at the Provider Forum 2026, on 3 November at the Natural History Museum in Vienna!

Come-together in Vienna

At the Kulturpool Provider Forum 2026, we are inviting representatives from our partner institutions to join us in discussing current challenges and shared goals.

How can the diverse range of cultural heritage data – from audiovisual items to 3D content – be made easier to find and use? What training, services and resources are needed to build expertise within the institutions? Where can we collaborate even more effectively? And what barriers must we, as a digital cultural heritage community, overcome to make our dreams a reality?

Take this opportunity to reflect on your ‘Data Dreams’ for your institution’s digitised collections and to develop ideas further through discussion with others! We are particularly looking forward to hearing about your experiences and receiving your feedback on the use of Kulturpool’s services.
