Programme Partnerships
Bring your research to life.
Programme Partnerships give science-driven organisations and individuals the opportunity to share their research and ideas directly with a curious, engaged public. Each year, our partners — research institutions, universities, cultural organisations, embassies, NGOs, artists, science communicators, and independent initiatives — contribute to our programme of 350+ events across the Festival Centre and Citywide Programme. Together, they bring the festival to life for audiences across Berlin.
By joining over 200 fellow Programme Partners, your participation becomes part of a vibrant citywide celebration of science, featuring your organisation in one of Europe’s largest science communication events.
AS A PROGRAMME PARTNER, YOU WILL:
- Reach new audiences by engaging a science-curious public through innovative, interactive formats.
- Explore how your research resonates with the public, gaining insights into its societal relevance through direct interaction.
- Present your research at a festival with international reach, connecting with 35,000+ visitors and 200+ research institutions
- Gain visibility through our citywide festival campaign and communications measures, including receiving branding and media kits
- Connect with peers and partners across Europe’s science ecosystem, including researchers, institutions, and communicators
