blooloop is pleased to reveal the judges of the 2025 blooloop 50 Museum Influencer List.
Our sixth blooloop 50 Museum Influencer List is presented in association with BeWunder, experts in spectacular multisensory experiences using a range of media and technology.
Felix Erdmann, entrepreneur & executive, BeWunder, says: “At BeWunder, we see museums as evolving spaces where ideas, culture, and technology meet. Supporting the blooloop 50 Museum Influencer List is one way we highlight the change-makers redefining the museum experience.
“Their drive to make cultural spaces more engaging and inclusive resonates with our own commitment to meaningful experiences — and we’re proud to support their vision and contributions to the field.”
Charles Read, co-founder and creative director of blooloop, says: “Museums, art galleries, cultural institutions and heritage sites play a vital role in society as spaces for education and dialogue. They are also, increasingly, a regenerative force, where they can carve out greater relevance and meaning in their communities and beyond.
“In politically unstable times, and with the threat of climate change looming large, their role as trusted authorities and educators has never been more important. This year’s List will highlight key individuals whose innovation, drive and creativity are helping shape the future of museums.”
