What is Tomorrow's Tech World going to be like ? And next year – next decade ? Innovation and Technology are at the core of our modern society. Education, Communication, Businesses, Transportation, even Human Relationships : Engineering and Technology are reshaping every side of our lives, at an accelerated pace, almost as if they were driving on their own. And in order to be a part of it – we should keep up the rhythm. This is why we created NEO Network, a dynamic student Think Tank based at the largest Swiss Universities, bringing together students, companies, visionaries, researchers and many other brilliant minds. At NEO, we aim at promoting an interactive exchange on tomorrow's challenges, actively discussing the direction they are taking, and the amazing opportunities they bring along the way. We organize Keynotes hosting exciting speakers – such as leading industry experts, scientists, entrepreneurs – Workshops and Networking Events. We also release video interviews and online papers on the latest technological advancements. With a growing team already represented in six Swiss Universities and all scientific fields, we look forward to meeting you at one of our events, and are always open to new partnerships. Being ahead of today is being at the heart of tomorrow. NEO
