Last 10
and 11 December Minerva participated with a delegation of its
experts to the "Italy Israel Bi-National Seminar on Digital
Access to Scientific and Cultural Heritage", which was
held in Jerusalem, Israel.
The Embassy of Italy in Israel, The Ministry of Cultural Heritage
of Italy, The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Italy, the Ministry
of Science and Technology of Israel and the Jewish Agency for
Israel - eJewish.info initiative, in collaboration with Minerva,
has organized the Seminar, which was held in the framework of
the "Agreement between Italy and Israel on Industrial,
Scientific and Technological Cooperation."
The purpose of the Seminar was to increase the mutual acquaintance
of initiatives being carried out in Italy and in Israel in the
area of digitisation of scientific and cultural heritage. There
is already much interest among experts from the Museums, Libraries,
Archives, eGovernment, research centers and technology providers.
The personal contact and acquaintance between experts from both
countries is expected to lead to cooperation and to joint initiatives
and projects.
