Cultural Heritage Institutions within Open Innovation EcosystemsCity Case Description: Rotterdam & Immersive Media
What happens when a city known for architecture, experimentation, and festivals explores how immersive media can strengthen public value? In Rotterdam, experts examined how digital tools can enhance exhibitions, archives, and cultural programming, and what policy support is needed to make this possible.
How does “prototyping” work?
This City Case Description is the outcome of a policy prototyping exercise within a city ecosystem.
Once the ekip research team has explored a policy area and its connection to cultural and creative
industries (CCIs) and innovation, we ask: what would this mean in a local city context?
Together with local stakeholders, we test how a draft policy recommendation might stimulate innovation. Using Portfolio Sensemaking, stakeholders simulate an innovation portfolio, analyse the strengths and gaps of the local support system, and identify what resources are needed to realise the portfolio.
Rotterdam Context & Area of Focus
Rotterdam is considered as a forward thinking city. It is a city known for its architecture, and also for experiments and innovation. During all different types of festivals connections between the Rotterdam and international scene are made, and also between inhabitants and visitors of the city.
Together with experts we explored the use of (immersive) media in (architecture) exhibitions and use of archives. And what kind of policy is needed to support this.
