AMOT - 'Preparing for the Future'

Army Museums Ogilby Trust (AMOT) is building on the success of its Into the Future and Libor Digitisation programmes to deliver another packed Annual Conference for all attendees. Providing valuable updates on the sector, advice and guidance to support delivery, operational and strategic planning for your museum supporting you with your future development.

The Conference will take place at the National Army Museum on Wednesday 10th October 2018. This exciting and accessible venue will make for an inspirational event not to be missed.

This year our theme is Preparing for the Future - providing delegates with updates, advice, guidance and presentations from partners, stakeholders and those outside of the Army Museum Sector.

There will also be a range of exhibitors from relevant organisations where you can find out more about recent developments and offers available across the sector.
