The 3rd edition of the "Science for Society" Congress will take place on 25–26 May 2025 at the Warsaw University of Technology. This unique event demonstrates that science is not only about work in laboratories, but also about delivering tangible solutions that benefit society and support the country’s economic development.

As part of the Congress, we invite you to visit the stand of the Institute of Plasma Physics and Laser Microfusion (IPPLM), where you will have the opportunity to:

  • learn more about nuclear fusion – the energy source of the future,
  • explore the main areas of the Institute’s scientific activities,
  • talk to our experts and researchers.

The IPPLM stand will be open to visitors:

  • Sunday, 25 May – 8:50 AM – 6:00 PM
  • Monday, 26 May – 8:20 AM – 6:00 PM

More than 100 research institutions and teams will participate in the Congress, along with over 20 special guests – distinguished scientists, technology transfer experts, creators, entrepreneurs, and public figures.

Participation is free of charge and does not require registration.

The event will also be streamed online at: https://nauka-dla-spoleczenstwa.pl/

The full programme of the Congress is available here: Programme of the 3rd Congress edition
