At Numeraire Future Trends, we are proud to be working with the Cultural Foundation of the University of Salamanca to digitally fingerprint and identify one of Europe’s most exceptional patrimonial collections. Using our proprietary Object AI Fingerprint technology, we created Digital Product Passports (DPPs) for artworks and artifacts spanning centuries—ensuring their identity, traceability, and protection for future generations.
This partnership is a powerful example of how heritage, technology, and education can come together to build a more secure, transparent, and culturally rich future for Estates, Foundations and historical collections.
Founded in 1218, the University of Salamanca is the oldest university in the Spanish-speaking world. Its collection grew significantly during its Golden Age in the 16th century and continues to be preserved and expanded by the Cultural Foundation today.
Our collaboration goes beyond documentation—it’s also about knowledge transfer and shared stewardship. We had the privilege of working side by side with an inspiring group of university students who meaningfully contributed to the project and are now equipped to carry this expertise forward.
This project demonstrates what’s possible when heritage, technology, and education intersect—and what it means to protect the irreplaceable with cutting-edge tools and intergenerational collaboration.
A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Matilde María Olarte Martínez, Vice-Principal of Culture, Heritage, and Sustainability, and Dr. Óscar González Benito, Managing Director of the Fundación General, for their visionary leadership. And special thanks to Natalia González Benito for her thoughtful coordination and support throughout our time in Salamanca.
Stay tuned for more as we continue exploring the future of cultural preservation!
