Microsoft is proud to support the Museum community, and sponsor this plenary panel about emerging technologies today and in the future. We'll cover a number of key themes including 1) technology has always been emerging and will always be emerging. What is the framework for incorporating it in your Museum? 2) Current emerging technology examples - artificial intelligence, Mixed reality, Internet of Things, Quantum Computing 3) the costs and downfalls of adopting technology too soon or too narrowly. 4) Framework for experimenting with emerging technology early in its lifecycle and including in future plans and strategies.
Session TypePlenary Panel
Key OutcomesThe outcomes are for participants to understand what can go wrong when adopting technology too early, an understanding of the maturing of technologies and how to start to plan and experiment with them to include in future plans, as well as to broaden the view of emerging technologies that go beyond very visible experiences and extend to behind the scenes applications that are equally transformative.
