Science Meets Business at the European Science Fair

In a world where competitive advantage is built on knowledge, innovation, and effective cooperation, events that connect different environments – scientific, business, and technological – take on special importance. It is precisely at the intersection of these areas that solutions are created that have a real impact on economic development.

On May 26–29, 2026, at the Poznań International Fair grounds, the European Science Fair will take place – an event creating space for dialogue, experience exchange, and relationship building between science and business.

Space for Innovation and Implementation
The European Science Fair is not only a presentation of technological achievements and research and development projects, but above all a place where innovations gain a real chance for implementation. The event brings together universities, research institutes, startups, spin-off companies, and entrepreneurs looking for modern solutions for their industries.

A special feature of this year’s edition will be the so-called “duet stands” – joint exhibition spaces for science-business teams. It is there that the full process of innovation creation will be presented – from the idea, through research and development, to practical application in the economy.

Event of International Significance
The fair is held simultaneously with one of the most important industrial events in this part of Europe – ITM Industry Europe. This combination creates a unique environment where the world of science meets industry directly, and new technologies can be confronted with real market needs.

The presence of numerous companies, experts, and institutions supporting innovation development fosters the establishment of business contacts and the building of partnerships on both national and international scales.

Why is it worth participating?
Participation in the European Science Fair offers entrepreneurs and institutions a range of tangible benefits:

  • access to the latest technologies and market trends,
  • opportunity to establish cooperation with scientific units and business partners,
  • chance to develop and commercialize your own projects,
  • promotion of innovative solutions to a wide audience.

It is an event that genuinely supports knowledge transfer to the economy and strengthens cooperation between the science and business sectors.

Presence at the European Science Fair is an investment in development – access to knowledge, new technologies, and relationships that can translate into concrete projects and competitive advantage.

The European Science Fair is a place where science meets practice, and innovative ideas gain a real chance for implementation.

We invite you to participate in the event and actively join in building a modern, innovative economy.
