Cultural Heritage Lab - will focus on Audience Development and will raise issues related to a deeper understanding of current and potential recipients. During the Lab, innovative approaches will be presented, such as: data-based decision making, mixed methods and creative techniques as well as user-centered constructions.

Business Innovation Lab - will focus on innovation in the broadly understood Business and Services sector. VSS’s participants will talk about artificial intelligence that accompanies us every day in many forms and about its practical use.

This year, some 30 people from V4, Eastern Partnership and Central Europe will take part in the school's program. According to the organizers, priority is given to startup founders, initiators of competitive business, and people settled in heritage sites, working with tangible and intangible heritage, as the main material of their professional activities.
