NCM is situated on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people. We pay respects to them, especially their Elders and storytellers, as well as all First Peoples, nationwide. NCM acknowledges that communication technologies have a long history here, far longer than European occupation.

NCM is guided by a board of directors whose expertise spans technology, arts, culture, law, and finance. Their collective experience sits across institutions including Telstra, Microsoft, the National Film and Sound Archive, and the General Sir John Monash Foundation.
