Symposium on Curating Cultural Big Data

In partnership with the Consulate General of Switzerland in Hong Kong, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) proudly present the symposium, Curating Cultural Big Data.
Digital technologies preserve cultural heritage and make information readily available to the public. By converting data, documents and processes to digital form, cultural treasures can be shared and appreciated by all. Digitised cultural databases also drive research and innovation. The in-depth integration of the cultural industry and digital technology has created a variety of emerging businesses.
In this lively discussion among world-class experts in digital humanities, we will explore the applications of technology in museology through research examples and the countless opportunities digital technology offers the public to experience culture and learn.
