REVIEW: THAT WAS THE NEULAND INNOVATION DAY 2024!

The NEULAND Innovation Day at KIT on the topics of innovation and entrepreneurship went into the next round on June 12, 2024 - live around the Audimax on KIT's South Campus.

This year's event focused on innovations that contribute to a greener, more digital and healthier future. Aspects that are described in the EU strategy as clear goals for a sustainable future, to which KIT is intensively dedicated in its research areas and which were also the focus of the exciting short presentations at the Innovation Day. In addition to the specialist presentations, this year's highlights also included the start-up pitch including the subsequent award ceremony, the presentation of the innovation prizes and a large exhibition in the Audimax foyer with around 40 stands, which invited visitors to network. 

For the first time, we also built a bridge between science, business and art with the Innovation Day. In the evening, the Chairman of the ZKM Karlsruhe, Alistair Hudson, gave his eagerly awaited keynote speech on the topic of "Manufactories of Creative Intelligence". Hudson spoke about the alternative history of museums as sites of collaborative learning and the advancement of knowledge in the field of new technologies.
