A museum refers to a non-profit organization or institution that acquires, conserves, researches, communicates, and exhibits artifacts and objects of artistic, historical, scientific, and cultural importance. Rising historical and environmental awareness among people across the world has fueled the growth of museums. With tourism emerging as a major industry worldwide, museums have found a role in promoting tourism by showcasing local culture and heritage. However, budget constraints continue to pose a challenge for setting up and managing museums.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing tourism, growth in education and learning sector, and rising income levels are some of the key factors driving the global museum market. Over the past decade, international tourist arrivals have grown exponentially thereby boosting museum visits globally. Moreover, establishing museums has become one of the major attractions for tourists in many countries. Another significant factor is the growth in education and learning sector. Museums serve as ideal platforms for gaining practical knowledge about history, science, and culture which supplements classroom education. Additionally, rising per capita income has enabled people to spend more on leisure and travelling activities including museum visits. However, high costs associated with setting up and operating museums as well as challenges in attracting younger visitors are the major restraints impeding the market growth.
