IE’s online networking events are here for you to find other professionals to work with – Aren’t two brains better than one?
IE recently launched an online networking event to help connect our members who wish to find partners to collaborate with. The last event was an intimate affair, but social, interactive and interesting. Getting to know each other better means that we have more knowledge to share and more experience to offer to our clients.
Some of our members have upcoming projects that they need help with and so they came to this networking event to see what others might have to offer. Our participants had a wide range of skills that they could share, from digital solutions, experience in social involvement and fundraising, to interpretive planning, interpretive media design and writing. We’re all a part of IE, but you never really realise how much knowledge and expertise is out there until you join an event like this.
The projects were also interesting. We heard from Enrico about his mining heritage project where he wants to help locals to rediscover their history and to showcase the mining migrations across Europe. We heard from Vasilka about her small historic house that has been run by the same family for over 120 years which is being converted into a museum (and a museum theatre project that they would like to make interpretive and international). And we heard from Kris who makes youth documentaries about archaeology, palaeontology, heritage and history, and which he would like to expand into the rest of Europe.
I hope that there will be many more opportunities like this, where members get to know each other better and through that, help each other out. We are a community here to support all of the professionals in the interpretive industry, so that we can all make heritage more meaningful. Let’s get to know each other, work with each other and make our heritage shine together.
Keep an eye on the IE website and your inbox for news about the next networking event and we hope to see you there!
