Participants

We always hoped to see a diverse and a well-represented youth attendance, as we wanted the summit to reflect the various intra-regional perspectives of Europe and to put Europe in a global context. However, we were astounded to see 300 people from 45 countries and a seemingly endless varity of diciplines convene at the summit. You could meet young entrepreneurs, engineers, humanists, economists all working together on the same mission – to build a sustainable energy future.

While our primary audience was students, we had the privilige of also meeting community members, faculty, policymakers, and business leaders at the summit. All people should have the chance to feel the magic of bringing people together who are working to advance clean energy from different angles.
