AcrossLimits is a dynamic Maltese technology research & consulting SME with its roots firmly set in the cultural and media sectors. In fact it has been providing policy consulting, project development support and online content management systems to many public and private entities in Malta, amongst which the Ministry of Youth & the Arts, Heritage Malta, The Malta Centre for Restoration, several Local Councils and private museums. Since 2004 it has been an active partner of the Minerva network where it supported the participation of the Maltese Government's role in the NRG (National Representatives Group) for the digitisation of Cultural Heritage.
AcrossLimits is also a subcontractor and adviser on several other culture related projects, both on a local Maltese and European scale.
Notable to mention are the Maltese foresight exercise held in 2002 that focused also on exploitation of culture and technology for tourism, the eTen MICHAELPlus project that exploits search engine technologies for national cultural collections and the TRI-MED Culture 2000 project on digitisation of the processes behind the culture of Oil, Bread and Wine in the Mediterranean.
AcrossLimits maintains good links both within the cultural community in Malta and in the Mediterranean region, and also with the technology research area in order to be able to serve the needs of the former with the latter. This network of contacts will be exploited within the EDLocal project to be able to enhance the participation of Malta within the European Digital Library. In fact AcrossLimits’ role as national contact for Malta will ensure that more and more local collections will continue to be added as time goes by.
