Project Description
Every year, a National Science Fair is organised by the French Ministry of Education, Research and Innovation with events all over France.
We gather scientific experts, academics, entrepreneurs for a one day event in October at a great place in Pays de Gex, Pays Bellegardien.
The national main topic in 2018 was “Changing your mind about preconceived ideas”
Sub-themes were:
- Gender Equality
- Europe & International
- Climate Change and Sustainable Development
- Society Issues
- Innovative Mediation Tools and Techniques
- Scientific News
- Industry 4.0
- History of Science and Technology
Plenty of activities took place on October 13th, including:
- Scientific films
- Demonstrations and stands (with scientific experts)
- Conferences
- Accredited “Fête de la Science”projects
During the day, we have showcased new projects in ethical fashion, retro-gaming, smart buildings, bioethics and augmented humanity.
As it was during “Pink October”, we also covered the cause “fighting cancer”.
Multiple local associations and other organisations have partnered with us this year, including:
