Factum Foundation | Madrid is a not-for-profit organization founded in 2009, working hand in hand with its sister company, Factum Arte. Based in Madrid, Factum Foundation is dedicated to the preservation of cultural heritage through the development of high-resolution recording and re-materialization techniques. Their goal is to document, monitor, study, recreate, and disseminate the world's cultural heritage by using cutting-edge non-contact recording methods.

The foundation has a multi-disciplinary workshop, Factum Arte, which specializes in digital mediation in contemporary art and the production of facsimiles. They create facsimiles that are so accurate, the naked eye cannot tell them apart from the original, allowing fragile and untouchable objects to be handled and exhibited. Factum Foundation aims to change attitudes towards digital recording of cultural heritage and encourage the creation of permanent and accessible public records.

They develop new recording and display technologies, archiving systems, and techniques of digital preservation and restoration. Moreover, they share their recording skills and technologies through training courses and centers worldwide. Their efforts contribute to the international effort to develop shared principles for the digital recording, archiving, and dissemination of cultural heritage.

Through their work, Factum Foundation leaves raw, unmanipulated data for future generations to analyze and engage with emotionally. Their dedication to preserving and sharing cultural heritage helps protect it from destruction, exploitation, and loss over time
