EMF History |
Established in 1994, during the first wave of "multimedia" as the European Multimedia Forum, the EMF was formed in order to stimulate the commercial demand for dynamic multimedia content and technologies. Ever since, the EMF has played an important role in promoting the various components of the digital value chain. In 2001, EMF started focusing on two important drivers for any actor in the digital sector: markets and funding, through two core service platforms: the e-FundingFacilitator and the e-Accelerator. Later, these were complemented by e-Match, a powerful matchmaking platform. Around the same period, the European Seal of e-Excellence was launched. an award distinguishing the most innovative and successful players in the digital economy. Throughout its existence, EMF has organised numerous networking events and has been involved in numerous projects. In 2009, EMF streamlined all these activities into a branded and integrated portfolio of services geared at supporting the Forum of e-Excellence and a broad network of stakeholders in the digital economy. |
