The Other Side of Innovation | 25 October | IdeaSquare

Professor of Technology and Innovation at ETH Zürich, Stefano Brusoni, will give a talk on the divergent process of innovation while Bruno Herbelin, Deputy Director of the Center for Neuroprosthetics at EPFL, will immerse us in the power of embodiment of virtual reality and how researchers can best use this new technology.

Projects developed at IdeaSquare’s rapid prototyping facilities will be showcased throughout the day. Among them, discover prototypes addressing societal challenges, developed by multidisciplinary student teams in collaboration with researchers at CERN, through the Challenge Based Innovation programme.

You can take a tour of the space or sign up for introductory workshops in 3D printing, robotics programming, and human-centred design.

The event will take place at IdeaSquare, located in Building 3179 at Point 1, next to the Globe of Science and Innovation from 10.00 a.m. to 7.00 p.m. Access is open to anyone with a CERN badge. The full agenda is available on the Indico page of the event.
