Vienna Museums Grant Design

Year(s): 2021–2022

Description:
We helped design the first grant targeted at museums in the city of Vienna.

The project included:

• Collecting and analysing data on 126 Viennese museums

• Designing and distributing a survey to understand current technology usage and organizational maturity

• Conducting in-depth interviews with museum staff

• Organizing a workshop with a broader audience to map insights and prepare recommendations for the grant launch.

Output:

Established an evidence-based foundation for Vienna’s first museum grant, creating a data-driven model that strengthens long-term institutional resilience, guides future cultural funding and policy, and informs museums’ own strategic development.
