The Museums Computer Group (MCG) is a non-profit association of individuals who share a common interest in encouraging, improving and influencing best practice in the use of technology and digital platforms within the museum and heritage sector. The MCG Committee is composed of volunteers from across the heritage sector. We organise yearly Museums+Tech conference and other events across the UK providing opportunities for knowledge-sharing and discussions about the use of technology within the sector. We also host and moderate a lively online forum, the MCG community discussion list, which, with over 1,600 members, offers an immediate access to a huge pool of professionals with and within the sector.
