Innovation Festival

CIfA's autumn online conference

Our next Innovation Festival will be held 6-10 October 2025.

 

Call for sessions

Our next digital Innovation Festival will provide the opportunity to showcase and celebrate the innovative practices and approaches being undertaken across the historic environment sector.

Our week-long virtual festival will comprise a mix of short sessions each day, and can include presentations, workshops, virtual experiences, individual case studies, opportunities for open discussion, or poster galleries.

We are focusing the festival to really embrace the driving themes of innovation, development and research in archaeology. This includes, but is not limited to

  • academic research
  • technological advances
  • innovative approaches
  • public benefit
  • developing practices
  • innovation by design

If you are interested in running a session please complete our proposal form with a short outline of what you’d like to include – we’d love to hear from you! Deadline for proposals is Friday 15 August 2025.
