ArtTech is a Swiss foundation created in spring 2017 with the aim of building a platform for\u00a0exchanges and meetings between groups of experts from various fields in order to bring two
\ntraditionally distant worlds, art and technology, into communication.<\/p>\n
Through the development of initiatives at national and international\u00a0level, the ArtTech Foundation sets out to preserve and promote the\u00a0cultural heritage by stimulating thinking on the opportunities offered\u00a0by new technologies and by supporting ground-breaking, disruptive\u00a0innovative projects situated at the crossroads between culture,\u00a0art, technology and science. The ArtTech Foundation also aims to\u00a0encourage the growth of favourable environments for the creation of\u00a0high-potential start-ups. By building a community that brings together
\nresearchers, leading personalities from the world of art and culture,\u00a0investors and entrepreneurs, the ArtTech Foundation wishes to play a\u00a0key role in this booming young sector of the economy. In the pursuit\u00a0of this mission, the Foundation organises the ArtTech Forum on an\u00a0annual basis, bringing together in seminars and at round tables an international community
\nof researchers, technicians, scientists and representatives from the world of economics and\u00a0culture. The third edition of the ArtTech Forum will take place on the Island of San Giorgio,
\nVenice, on 24 September in partnership with the Fondazione Giorgio Cini.
\nDuring the event several projects will be presented to highlight the link between new technologies,\u00a0heritage conservation and methods of archiving historical data. The ArtTech Forum 2019
\nalso includes a round table on new business models, focused on promoting entrepreneurship\u00a0and investments in the field of culture and technology. Lastly, the forum will end with the
\nArtTech Prize, to be awarded to one of eight startups selected by an international jury. The\u00a0participants from Europe, the United States and Asia will be offered the opportunity to forge
\nspecial links for the purpose of developing and launching innovative projects.
