FOUNDER MEMBER until 2016
KMKG (Koninklijke Musea voor Kunst en Geschiedenis) is a scientific research institute that functions under the Federal Belgian Science Policy government. It has the governmental responsibility over a wide range of museums – specialized in prehistoric artefacts, Art Nouveau jewelry and Japanese prints, to name but a few – with the task to define their overall philosophy and fundamental mission. KMKG’s assignment encompasses, among others, the preservation, management and publication of collections by developing the central collection database, the collection publishing portal and the data aggregator environment; the improvement of digital collections and public services; and establishing a close cooperation between scientific institutions on a national and international level by exchanging digital data and technological expertise.
