Thank you for joining us at the pre-event for AIMday

At AIMday Big Science Technology 2025, we kicked off with an inspiring pre-event. Participants explored a roll-up exhibition, reconnected with colleagues and friends, and sparked new collaborations. Some also joined exclusive guided tours of MAX IV and ESS.

At the roll-up exhibition, participants mingled and made new contacts.

On 30 September 2025, eight of the world’s leading research facilities joined Nordic researchers and high-tech companies in Lund for AIMday Big Science Technology 2025, focusing on Green Tech Solutions.

Participating facilities included CERN, EISCAT, ESS (European Spallation Source), European XFEL, FAIR/GSI, Fusion for Energy and MAX IV – bringing together expertise from Switzerland, Germany, Spain, Sweden and Denmark.
