Falling Walls Breakthrough Conversations

Engage in a live conversation with global science leaders at the Falling Walls Science Summit 2022! The Falling Walls Breakthrough Conversations on 8-9 November give you the unique opportunity to meet outstanding scientists, emerging innovators and science entrepreneurs via our livestream. 

Funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and in partnership with Springer Nature, the Breakthrough Conversations offer the extraordinary chance to attend a live streamed interview with breakthrough thinkers and to engage with them in real-time.

The Breakthrough Conversations will run parallel to the main Science Summit programme on 8 and 9 November, with each interview lasting 25 minutes and focusing on our high-level guests’ individual research, career paths and experiences. The digital audience is encouraged to actively engage in the dialogue-oriented online meeting guided by a professional moderator provided by our cooperation partner Springer Nature.

Among this year’s guests are Fields Medal laureate Maryna Viazovska, Millennium Prize Winner Shankar Balasubramanian and John Jumper of DeepMind as well as Science Breakthrough of the Year 2022 laureates and other high-level guests.
