Arcarta Adapt

How innovation and technology can inform collector experience.

The world has changed, and collector priorities have changed with it.

We want our community to thrive and to meet the future head on at every stage of an artwork’s journey. Sitting at the unique intersection of art & tech, we believe in equipping the art market with the tools to integrate innovative thinking into the everyday.

That’s why we've put together a group of art market experts changing the way we think about art and technology.

Join us on November 3rd at Cromwell Place for a two part panel discussion and networking event where you will gain inspiration and insights, alongside the technological tools to make them a concrete reality.
