Creative & Heritage Innovation Challenge

Start Date: March 2023
End Date: Aug 2023
Funder: IT Services, University of Oxford
 

We’re bringing together experts from the creative and heritage industries to tell us what challenges they face in their work and connecting them with our researchers to see if we can find some digital humanities solutions to real world problems. We want to understand the challenges faced, to propose some solutions based on our research expertise, and to generate interest in developing these solutions further with technical partners 

The challenge has four elements 

  • A workshop with experts from the creative and heritage industries where we invite them to bring us their challenges
  • A workshop with researchers to generate ideas to conquer these challenges 
  • Opportunities for researchers to build skills in areas of innovation and design thinking and further refine these ideas, and start to develop solutions 
  • An event where we showcase the challenges, and potential solutions to all our participants, and a selection of representatives from tech companies
