The Future of Research is Young

VITO Young Advisory Board: Ilke Geleyn, Francesca Vanoverberghe, Elisabeth Honinx, Paulina Govea-Alvarez, Juan Diego Alvarez Ospina. Moderated by Aurelie Boffe.


How can young people influence change? As a founding partner of Love Tomorrow Summit, VITO brings its Young Advisory Board to the main stage.

Led by moderator Aurelie Boffe, young researchers present work that will remain relevant for hundreds of years: sustainable materials for the construction sector, electrochemistry for space applications, circular cities, data-driven health innovation, and the connection between science and start-ups.

The central question that unites them all: how can an engaged generation bring about real change? This session proves that the future of research is young, diverse and driven.
