Starting in June 2013, the Digital R&D Fund for the Arts in Wales funded seven projects to explore how digital technology might help them improve their audience reach or develop new business models.

Each project was a collaboration between an arts organisation and a technology company, supported by Re-DrAW, an academic research consortium. The case studies below tell the story of those projects, the results and the lessons they learned.

The Digital R&D Fund for the Arts in Wales is a strategic partnership between Arts Council of Wales, Arts and Humanities Research Council and Nesta.
