Let's meet in Katowice
In September, young scientists from all over Europe will meet at the international finals in Katowice and battle for the main prize.
The city is located in the south of Poland, in Silesia Upland, which makes it a place at the crossroads of different cultures.
This modern city stands out with a well-developed economy and culture. The hallmark of Katowice is relatively new, mainly 20th-century architecture, including many high-rise buildings.
Get a bird’s eye view of the city.
Venue
NOSPR
The finals will be held in the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra seat. A stellar modern building is one of the architectural pearls scattered around the Culture Zone in Katowice, ready to host you within its spacious interior.
