The Berner Kulturagenda association, the City of Bern's Department of Cultural Affairs and the publisher of the Berner Zeitung (BZ) Espace Media Group have agreed to collaborate on a joint event portal.
The sponsoring association Berner Kulturagenda, the City of Bern's Department of Cultural Affairs and the publisher of the Berner Zeitung (BZ) Espace Media Group have agreed to collaborate on a joint event portal for the city and region of Bern. Espace Media has been operating an event database for five years, which is used both online at Espace.ch and by the in-house print media. The Berner Kulturagenda already obtains some of its data from Espace.ch. This database is currently being completely updated. The Berner Kulturagenda and the City of Bern are now part of the ongoing project organization. The three parties will jointly define the requirements and needs for the implementation of the new event database, as detailed in a joint press release.
The press release from the three project participants also states that the new Bern event portal will open at the beginning of 2007 as part of an interim solution. Events from the fields of culture, sport, business, church, leisure and gastronomy will be listed. The portal with new technology will be launched in the fall of next year. Editorial articles will also be available on the events portal from this date.
