During the week of September 1–7, 2019, more than 4500 participants attended the ICOM General Conference and exhibition in Kyoto, Japan; a triennial event focused on museum-related topics. Together with our Japanese reseller Universal Business Technologies Corp (UBTC), Image Access presented a number of solutions for the museum community; the large format fine art scanner WideTEK® 36ART, a WideTEK® 25 flatbed scanner with backlight option and a Bookeye® 4 V3 Kiosk book scanner.
