“I continue to support the IMCC as an inspiring and significant forum of global ideas and innovation in museum development. I am particularly proud than IMCC Virtual 2020 and IMCC London 2021 are looking to not only discuss World class design and delivery but also to create spaces for the sector to explore how museum development can respond to some of the biggest challenges we currently face around topics such as sustainability, accessibility and social equity.”
— Ben Melham, Mortice Consulting, IMCC 2021 London Chair
“The best museum conference I’ve attended in my 35 years working in the sector. The caliber and quality of the session topics is very high, and the attendees are an impressive group of decision makers from both the museum side and the supplier side of our industry. The networking opportunities are excellent, and I’ve had the chance to chat informally with people with whom I’d never get to meet in the course of my day to day work. The site visits are extremely useful as well as lots of fun. So, its fair to say that IMCC has expanded my mind and my contacts! The behind the scenes tour of the Natural History Museum in Berlin was a real highlight…I’ll never forget sipping a flute of champagne underneath the dinosaur skeleton!”
— Ann E. Curtis, Managing Director, Heritage Solution Ltd Editor, MuseumINSIDER
“In 2015, Brian Mandrier and his team made the big step to Europe for the first International Museum Construction Congress in Amsterdam. That was not easy, the step was huge, but the museum community was enthusiastic about the program.
It was a pleasure to work with Brian and organize the meetings and site visits held in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam and the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam. The most important part: there was tremendous positive feed-back from the participants and the museum. Now, IMCC enters its 5th year, and this has not changed!”
— Mr. Jean A.M.J. Hilgersom MSc Arch., managing partner/senior project manager and consultant Toornend Partners
“The International Museum Construction Congress is the best international museum congress, I have attended. Copenhagen, Berlin, Budapest – every year you have managed to exceed my expectations! Looking forward to the virtual London one.”
