State of the art Digital technologies can bring history to life. But even more, they open to new ways of collaborating which can involve European cultural and research institutions and stimulate new and exciting models of innovation and of business models for museums.
Description of the project CEMEC brought together museums by applying cutting-edge technology through a collaborative network of exhibits from different countries. The developed digital applications allowed museums and insititutions to use the power of visualisation to make exhibitions attractive, informative, thoughtprovoking, and emotionally stimulating. The CEMEC project was mainly aimed at professionals working in the field of cultural heritage: museum specialists, university specialists collaborating with museums, and professionals in technical and creative companies. The challenges of the project relate to interinstitutional and international collaboration, the organisation of travelling exhibitions in the field of cultural heritage and the development and user evaluations of digital applications.

CEMEC created an international cooperation between various cultural institutions that reached far beyond general loan agreements. Creative Europe’s support Connecting Early Medieval European Collections (CEMEC) brought together seven European museums, five Universities and six technical partners. Between 2015 and 2019 it allowed a lasting network of collaborations, the exchange of objects and the pooling of knowledge and tools.

The digital applications created by CEMEC, such as the Cross Culture Timeline, can be updated, reused and employed in other areas as it is already done for educational purposes.
