The Falling Walls Lab on 8 November 2015 is an innovative format for highly qualified young researchers with the ambition to break through societal challenges. With the slogan “Share Your Idea!” the Falling Walls Lab offers hundreds of young scientists, entrepreneurs and innovators from around the world a stage to pitch their research work, initiatives or business models to their peers and a distinguished jury from academia and business – in 3 minutes each.

The three most intriguing presenters will be awarded the title “Falling Walls Young Innovator of the Year 2015”, will receive a cash prize and will get the opportunity to present their idea on the grand stage of the Falling Walls Conference on 9 November 2015. At the Conference, 20 top-class scientists from around the world present their current breakthrough research answering the question “Which are the next walls to fall?” This year, Prof. Bruce Beutler, Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, and Prof. Emmanuelle Charpentier, 2015 Breakthrough Price winner, are amongst the attending speakers.
