AboutDélégation France

    On the occasion of the 11th edition of the Kikk Festival, France will be represented with a delegation of French companies from the Cultural and Creative Industries. This is an opportunity to discover an attractive ecosystem and innovative companies from different backgrounds: publishing, immersive technologies (AR/VR/XR), photography, graphic design, scenography … A French Pavilion will bring together companies, associations, public and private actors of the sector. The objective is to allow actors from Belgian cultural institutions, tourism and events to meet French companies that are leaders in the field of immersive realities and cultural innovation.

    The origin of this initiative :
    The Cooperation and Cultural Action Service of the French Embassy in Belgium
    The Ministry of Culture (DGMIC)
    Business France, the national agency for the internationalisation of the French economy.
    Minalogic, the digital technology competitiveness cluster of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Minalogic brings together nearly 500 members and accelerates qualified contacts between these players and boosts their innovation and business projects in France, Europe and internationally.
    104factory, the CENTQUATRE-PARIS incubator, which hosts and supports young innovative cultural and creative companies and enables the development of numerous experiments in favour of digital and ecological transitions.

    ConferencesIMMERSION 2030 - what will be the challenges of mediation, presentation and conservation of immersive works for cultural institutions?

    From the immersive Grand Palais (Paris) to the Venice Film Festival, from New York to Brussels, mobile applications, augmented reality, virtual reality or immersive experiences are invading museums, theatres and tourist sites. They are now an essential tool for reaching new audiences and creating a new relationship between the public and institutions.

    For the latter, this upheaval in the offer poses many challenges: the need to train teams, the cost of maintenance and mediation, the rapid evolution of equipment, the lack of expertise, the identification of budgets necessary for the development of new exhibition formats, and the conservation of works.

    We know what the current systems are, but what will they be like tomorrow? What new forms of mediation and exhibition must cultural institutions invent, and how can they integrate the resulting interactivity into their programming?  What will become of these works in a few years’ time, at a time of rapid technological change? What conservation protocols will have to be invented? Who will be responsible for their maintenance? What are the strategies of producers, start-ups and large groups developing these digital proposals in order to meet these challenges? What are the business prospects offered by the cultural sector? And what can we expect from technological developments between now and 2030?
