Science in the City Programme

The Science in the City Programme will set the city in motion, hosting exhibits, meetings and various events for the public at large.

A relevant section of Science in the City will be held within the Lingotto Venue, other activities will be in the Torino city centre: streets, squares and courtyards will be brought to life until late in the evening. Further Science in the City events will take place in theatres, museums, concert halls, cafes.

Popular talks anchored by famous scientists and TV journalists, music shows and other forms of entertainment will be on stage in the historical square Piazza San Carlo.

An open Call for Proposals, that closed on 30 September 2009, was launched also for the Science in the City Programme. We received 88 proposals from 11 countries and EU institutions.

The themes for the Science in the City Programme activities are those of the Scientific Programme.
