The Athens Science Festival, the festival devoted to Science and Innovation since 2014, is an established cultural landmark in the field of Science, Technology, Innovation and Art in Greece!
It is organized by the educational organization “Science Communication – SciCo”, the British Council, and the Technopolis City of Athens in collaboration with various academic, research, and educational institutes.
For over 5 days every spring, residents and schools in and around Attica have the opportunity to explore scientific and technological advancements in an entertaining, innovative and interactive manner. At the same time, researchers, distinguished scientists, educators and artists give their best to communicate science and indulge the visitors to participate in their experience with it.
Since its introduction to the people of Athens in 2014, Athens Science Festival has collaborated with more than 180.000 scientific associates, 6.500 partners, 900 speakers, 350 artists, and 2.200 volunteers. The Festival is repeatedly justifying its social impact, having exceeded initial expectations and having reached out to more than 150.000 visitors over the past 8 years. As such, the Athens Science Festival is righteously considered as one of the largest science and technology festivals in Greece.
ARC participated in the exhibition of the ASF 2024, from the 16th till the 21st of April, where the AI4EDU prototypes were demonstrated live to visiting schools, students, teachers, parents and to the general public.
It is estimated that 1200 people were reached, including around 500 students and teachers and around 700 people of the general public.
