IdeaSquare opened its doors for the CERN Community: the start of a new network of people prototyping at CERN?
Last February, IdeaSquare, the innovation space at CERN, opened its doors for a two days event for the internal community. The event offered visitors a unique opportunity to discover our rapid prototyping and multipurpose facilities and to learn how they could get involved.

A poetic transformation of the universe inside IdeaSquare
«Throughout history, human beings across the world lived with gardens in different ways upon their environmental and cultural factors. For instance, Japanese gardens poetically transform the essence of the universe embracing humans as a part of nature.» – Dr. Yuri Tanaka, Prof. Kosuke Bando, Ms. Zhuoan Dai, Ms. Junyi Guo, Ms. Mao Hasegawa, Mr. Joh Yamasaki

ATTRACT showroom: meet the funded projects
The ATTRACT Showroom, a virtual platform which contains the most relevant information about each of the funded projects during phase 2, has just been launched.
CERN Courier featured IdeaSquare as part of CERN's research and innovation ecosystem
CERN Courier features IdeaSquare as part of CERN's unique innovation ecosystem.
CERN hosts an ecosystem like no other in the world, from equipment procurement to knowledge-transfer initiatives. IdeaSquare has a special place there since it represents the "fuzzy front end" of innovation.
Cinzia Da Via: “An ecosystem like ATTRACT is essential for Europe”
ATTRACT Q&A
ATTRACT offers an opportunity to study the construction of an innovation ecosystem. In this regard, Cinzia Da Vià, ATTRACT R&D&I committee Co-chair and Professor of Physics at the University of Manchester, reflects on how the environments involved in that ecosystem are the basics for the economy.
Particle Post: Letters from the Universe
Here is another project which highlights the discourse between art and science to inspire you to think - and feel - outside the box. Our long-term resident Umut Kose collaborated with three other artists, Yuri Tanaka, Pavle Dinulović, and Chris Bruckmayr on this sensory piece of art that is powered by the infinitely small.

Neutrino Platform in the dark at IdeaSquare
The IdeaSquare dark room was designed and prepared by Umut Kose and team in 2014 to test and calibrate 400 ICARUS Photo Multipliers for the Neutrino Platform
