Renewed and improved YEAR Annual Conference will be organized in 12-13th of June in Brussels. In addition to giving you new tools to enhance your collaboration skills, we will also solve the universal challenges!

We know it: building your career as a young researcher is a challenging task. Expectations concerning your work are constantly increasing and target, further than your core scientific or engineering competences, many other skills like being innovative, creative; being able to work in a group or convince a public about the quality of your proposal… Already exhausted just by reading this list? No clue on how to get experience on that? Well at YEAR we answer… Challenge accepted!

We are happy to announce that the YEAR Annual Conference 2017 – from idea to collaboration will take place on 12th – 13th June in Brussels. Learn how to think out of the box! During this 2-days event, professional trainers will give you practical tips and tools for ideation, pitching as well as collaborative and innovative thinking. The whole key of the YEAR Annual Conference is to put you in a real environment so that you practice those techniques. More concretely said, you will have to apply them to develop in inter-disciplinary groups creative solutions to solve current universal challenges. The most interesting idea will be awarded.

Does it sound like a good way for you to improve your skills? Great! So stay tuned for more info and registration that will be soon opened on our website. If any questions, don’t hesitate to ask your local YEAR representative.

Looking forward to seeing you at the YEAR AC 2017,
