Digital collections and digital services have become essential elements 
of a modern museum. They have become strategic tools to interact with 
audiences, to tap into creative industries and to strengthen alliances 
with research and education partners. Yet many museums have not yet set 
explicit strategic goals to exploit their digital collections and 
increase the impact of their digital activities.

The aim of this special session is to bring together heritage 
professionals, researchers, policy makers and digital media specialists 
to explore and discuss strategies for digital heritage services. These 
strategies can relate to serving user groups, to working with business 
partners and to improving competences within the own organisation. 
Special attention will be paid to business model innovation as a tool to 
design digital heritage strategies that enhance sustainability and drive 
innovation.
