Demonstrations

MW2007 featured a Museum Professionals' Demonstration Hall on the morning of April 14, 2007. Museum staff members show sites created in a non-profit environment, and explaiedn the workings behind them to their colleagues.

Informal demonstration sessions are your chance to see many sites close-up and talk one-on-one with colleagues about their designs and the decisions that went into them. The Demonstration Hall is set up in the same manner as the Exhibit Hall. Delegates move from booth to booth for individual discussions with Demonstrators.
