Conference Sponsors 2024

For more than two decades, Bloomberg Philanthropies has been helping museums build digital tools to share their collections and exhibitions – creating meaningful museum experiences and increasing audience engagement around the world.

Our recently-launched app, Bloomberg Connects, renews this commitment, offering museums a free, cutting-edge digital platform. With multimedia content, way-finding, multilingual capabilities, and robust accessibility features, Connects allows you to tell your story your way.

One of The Guardian’s must visit venues for 2024, we are delighted to have the support of the Black Country Living Museum for this year’s event.

An award-winning open air museum, it tells the story of one of the very first industrialised landscapes in Britain. Set across 26 acres, you’ll explore carefully reconstructed shops, houses and industrial areas that represent the Black Country’s story. You’ll learn how steam power, human ingenuity and an increasingly interconnected world transformed this region into a manufacturing powerhouse.
