An accelerated digital transformation is crucial for a future-proof cultural sector. Cultural institutions are increasingly aware of the importance and necessity of digital transformation. But where do these organizations stand at this moment? And how do they take the next step? For this, DEN developed the Digital Transformation Scan. A scan that not only provides insight but also offers next steps towards a more integrated approach.
Making digital transformation manageable
DEN makes digital transformation manageable and has therefore developed a model that distinguishes different phases of digital transformation. See where your organization stands. For each phase, you will find advice and articles on digital transformation. With concrete next steps and inspiration, you can continue your digital transformation journey tomorrow.
Why this scan is relevant
- Digital transformation for cultural organizations is becoming increasingly important on the policy agendas of various governments
- The Digital Transformation Scan is specifically aimed at the cultural sector

- Based on the results, your organization can determine and monitor its digital ambition
Which phase are you in?
How far you are in digital transformation depends on developments in several areas such as strategy and budget, culture and competencies, audience and value, data and technology, processes and structure. In the scan, you answer various questions about all these areas. The results determine which phase your organization is in. The Digital Transformation Scan distinguishes five phases: starting, learning, executing, connecting, and integrated. Read more about the phases or start the scan immediately.
