The Science Museum Group has initiated a procurement process for a project titled "Science Capital Digital Experience" within the museum services industry, primarily located in London, United Kingdom. This tender aimed at delivering an innovative digital experience for children under the upper end of Key Stage 2 (aged 11 and below).

Originally, the submission deadline was set for 3rd November 2017.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for creative businesses, particularly those with expertise in educational software development, game design, and children's content creation.

The project highlights a growing demand for innovative and immersive educational tools, creating potential avenues for expansion among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the educational and digital services sectors.
