Our Journey
Over the past five years we have been on a journey of discovery in terms of how the cultural sector is uniquely poised to leverage the power of the collective.
Cultural organizations, and policy makers are beginning to reap the benefits of the sectors digital transformation in the form of a wider and deeper engagement with exisiting and new citizen groups.
A key learning is that there is no one-stop solution, instead it's about understanding the situation, and then asking the right questions, before adopting the right governance model, the key management metrics and benchmarks, the optimal marketing and communication strategy before finally adopting the best CultureTech solution.
KULTURDATA works with key partners from across the cultural ecosystem in addressing each of the key elements of a culture-based digital transformation strategy.

Data Alliance
KULTURDATA is a founding member and instrumental in the creation of the EADA.
The European Arts & Culture Data Alliance (EADA) is established as a pan-European non-profit community of practitioners, researchers, policymakers, technologists, and other actors united by a shared commitment to advancing methods, approaches, models, and standards for audience and cultural data.
The EADA occupies a distinctive niche in the European cultural ecosystem: it is neither a funding body, nor a regulatory authority, nor a large institutional network, but a focused, practitioner-led knowledge and inspiration forum where those working at the intersection of cultural engagement and data can learn from one another, build relationships, and act collectively where it matters.
EADA's added value lies precisely in what it is not: it does not seek to duplicate national efforts, absorb existing networks, or merge into larger bodies. It exists to connect what is otherwise disconnected — bringing together a broad range of actors including cultural engagement practitioners, cultural organisations, policymakers, governmental agencies, universities, research institutions, technology providers, and consultants — and to serve as a springboard from which new initiatives, collaborations, and projects can be launched at local, regional, national, and transnational levels.
