In 2013, the museum team embarked on a transformative journey with the launch of Bytes Festivals at the National Museum of Computing. The mission was clear: to empower our visitors, to foster engagement, exploration, and most importantly, fun with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). We set out to inspire, create opportunities for learning, and unite families, all while ensuring that STEM education was accessible to everyone.

Today, TNMOC has announced its newest foundation sponsor, Elastacloud – a cloud computing firm, specialising in AI, data intelligence and more.

These sponsorships enable the museum to continue preserving and showcasing Britain’s rich computer history whilst educating, engaging and inspiring the next generation of STEM professionals.
