TNMOC receives £50,000 donation from Ensoft


Ensoft has donated £50,000 to The National Museum of Computing (TNMOC), which will be used to assist in the Museum's development.

Tim Reynolds, chairman of TNMOC, said: "Recognition of TNMOC's achievements by a company as dynamic as Ensoft is a great boost to our work and underlines the educational value of computing history to inspire future generations of computer scientists and engineers."

Impressed by seeing so many early machines still in action at TNMOC, Ensoft is keen that as many people as possible can benefit from the experience of coding an early generation computer. Part of the new donation will be used to create and develop emulators that students on the TNMOC Learning Programme can use after their visit.

"There's a great deal of excitement in the technology industry in Britain, and it's critical to inspire young people to thrive confidently in the digital future," John Cooper, Ensoft's chairman, said. "TNMOC's unparalleled resource of working machines communicates uniquely how pivotal the UK has been in the evolution of computing so far, and helps to motivate the next generation to create the future boldly. Indeed, our own employees have gained great inspiration from visiting, and we would encourage every technology company to visit and support the development of TNMOC."
