EuroScience Open Forum
The EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF), held first time in Stockholm in 2004, is the biennial pan-European meeting on scientific research and innovation. The ESOF Hub was created in 2009 within the EuroScience Headquarters in Strasbourg, France, to ensure continuity from one event to the next, as the result of a partnership between Compagnia di San Paolo, Fondazione Cariplo, Riksbankens Jubileumsfond, Robert Bosch Stiftung, Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft (which are included in the Supervisory Board) and EuroScience.
ESOF aims to present scientific and technological developments in all scientific areas, and stimulate the European public’s engagement with science and technology. It is also stated on their website that ESOF "targets the media in all its forms thanks to a specific agenda dedicated to discussion on science communication."[1]
ESOF2014 will be held between 21-26 June in Copenhagen.[2]
