Preserve Today - Summer Newsletter 2026

In this issue, we explore how organizations are moving from simply preserving digital information to actively using it for discovery, decision-making and innovation. From Iceland Foods’ journey transforming decades of corporate history into a searchable digital archive, to new capabilities like Metadata Quality Check that improve accuracy and discoverability, we’re highlighting the people, technologies and partnerships shaping the future of Digital Preservation.

Unlocking 50 years of brand heritage

For more than five decades, Iceland Foods has captured the stories, people and milestones behind its brand. As its digital archive grew, finding valuable content became increasingly time-consuming. With Preservica embedded AI, Iceland Foods combined Active Digital Preservation with intelligent search and metadata enrichment, transforming days of searching into minutes and making its corporate history faster to discover, access and reuse. See how Iceland Foods transformed its archive.

Powered by community

The past few weeks have showcased the Preservica community in action. At our Dublin workshop, we explored what's next for Digital Preservation. In Windsor, over 100 attendees came together for our International User Group, sharing practical insights and real-world experiences. That same spirit of collaboration continued with the launch of Preservica Connect, our new annual online User Group event, bringing customers together to connect, collaborate and share best practices.

The ideas and feedback shared by our customers continue to shape our product roadmap and future innovations, ensuring Preservica continues to evolve alongside the needs of our community.
