eCulture Innovation Forum

The eCulture Innovationsforum connects interdisciplinary experiences in the research, development and application of novel technologies for digital cultural storytelling. The initiative focuses on connecting cultural institutions, research organizations, and technology partners to advance digital innovation in the cultural sector.

The eCultureLab at HafenCity University serves as a hub for exploring new avenues of cultural storytelling and testing the extent to which smart, digital archeology and history can fascinate visitors and passers-by.

Cultural institutions face significant challenges in reaching new audiences and making their collections accessible in the digital age. The eCulture initiative addresses the gap between traditional cultural heritage presentation and the possibilities offered by emerging digital technologies.

• The Innovationsforum brought together diverse stakeholders from museums, universities, and technology companies to explore collaborative approaches to digital cultural innovation.
• Key activities included dialogue conferences, workshops, and pilot projects.

• Established eCultureLab@HCU as research hub
• eCulture Dialogue Conference series
• Network of cultural and technology partners
• Foundation for SmartSquare project development
• Knowledge transfer with British Museum, National Museum of Denmark

• Innovationsforum eCulture - eCULTINNO: Abschlussbericht
