Falling Walls Lab Groningen 2019 (Netherlands)

What is Falling Walls? The Falling Walls Lab is an international forum, which aims to build bridges between business, politics, academia and the arts hosted by the Falling Walls Foundation - a non-profit organization in Berlin, offering a unique international platform for leaders from the worlds of science, business and politics, the arts and society. All participants get the opportunity to present their research work, business model or initiative with peers and a distinguished jury – in 3 minutes each. The name of the event was inspired by the fall of the Berlin Wall on the 9th of November 1989. Every year, on the anniversary of the Fall of the Wall the Falling Walls Conference takes place and top-class innovators from around the world are answering the question: “Which are the next walls to fall?” Among the speakers are Nobel laureates, artists, and heads of state. What is in it for you? The unique possibility to pitch your idea at the semi final of the Netherlands in front of an interdisciplinary jury. The winner gets direct access and a free trip to the final in Berlin - don´t miss your chance! At the end of the event you will have the possibility to get involved in exciting discussions and network with fellow innovators and experts from different disciplines.
