2024 CERN openlab Technical Workshop
At the 2024 CERN openlab Technical Workshop we will kick off the CERN openlab phase VIII with a review of the R&D projects carried out during the last year and discuss future plans.
The event will feature technical talks, a poster session and a technology track dedicated to our industrial partners with invited speakers. We will also invite our attendees to a private visit of the Science Gateway, followed by a networking cocktail.
The event will take place in person at the new Science Gateway at CERN on 26-27 March 2024, and it will a perfect opportunity for our industrial partners to meet with the students and fellows working on common projects!
The event is open to our openlab partners and collaborators. We hope to see many of you taking part in this event!
