DIGITAL NATIVES

The Google Cultural Institute, which includes

engaging with the arts through technology. Its

physical be as comfortable in digital?’

the Google Cultural Institute in December
2013. Before joining Google, Laurent Gaveau
was Deputy Director of Communications at
Versailles since 2008, more specifically in
charge of the service New Media, Marketing
and Partnerships. A graduate of Sciences Po
Paris he previously worked at the Opera de
Paris, the Centre Pompidou and Universal
Music France, first as head of jazz and
classical projects, then as head of online
