ISC and its partners will organise the 9th edition of the Science Summit 2024 from the 10-27 September 2024.
The role and contribution of Science and Innovation in attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) will be the central theme of the Science Summit. The objective is to enable science collaborations to demonstrate how science supports the attainment of the SDGs and Agenda 2030.
The Summit will examine what enabling policy, regulatory and financial environments are needed to implement and sustain the science mechanisms required to support genuinely global scientific collaborations across continents, nations and themes. Scientific discovery through the analysis of massive data sets is at hand. This data-enabled approach to science, research and development will be necessary if the SDGs are to be achieved.
Science Summit 2024 builds on the successful Science Summit 2023, which brought together over 1800 speakers from all continents in more than 400 sessions.
Science Summit 2024 will bring together thought leaders, scientists, technologists, innovators, policymakers, decision-makers, regulators, financiers, philanthropists, journalists and editors, and community leaders to increase collaborations across a broad spectrum of themes including ICT, health, nutrition, agriculture, astronomy, the environment, climate, geodesy and space, amongst others.
