Falling Walls Foundation founded the Falling Walls Lab in 2011. This competition encourages scientists around the world to
break academic barriers, promote interdisciplinary innovation, and solve practical problems.
Each year, preliminary competitions are held in different cities on five continents, and winners from various regions are invited to participate in the final competition in Berlin and the international renowned Science and Technology Innovation Conference- the Falling Walls Conference, which is hailed by the BBC as the
"Brightest Minds on the Planet"
and is the
world's top technology innovation exchange platform
.
We look forward to participants spending
3 minutes
in the competition to showcase their research projects to everyone, clearly explaining the issues and solutions of the projects. Experimental projects must have originality, interdisciplinary characteristics, and positive and inspiring content.
Winners from all over the world will go to Berlin, Germany to participate in the global finals.
