In an era of rapid technological change and complex global challenges, scientific innovation with societal impact requires active engagement and trust, not just information sharing. To drive real progress, science must be accessible, understood, and – most importantly – it must always MATTER.

To bridge this gap, EULiST – true to its core mission of linking society and technology – presents its MAKE SCIENCE MATTER interactive conference, taking place on October 15 in Brussels.

This event brings together three interconnected forces driving real-world impact from different angles:

• The European Commission: Providing high-level policy, strategic vision, and funding.
• European Universities: Conducting rigorous research, driving tech transfer, and transforming regional challenges into “living labs.”
• European Cities & Regions: Acting as vital forces for local implementation, cohesion, and resilience.

Don’t just take a seat. Take part.

This is not a traditional conference where you just sit and listen. Real impact requires action and a multi-way dialogue. Your role as a co-creator begins the moment you register! Through our digital Interactive Area, you can share challenges, best practices, and suggestions. Your input will directly feed into our live discussions and actively shape the final EULiST Brussels Statement – a community-driven manifesto aimed at focusing future investment exactly where Europe needs it most.
