Northeastern University, the German Consulate Boston, and the German Center for Research and Innovation New York have come together to bring Falling Walls Lab to Boston. Falling Walls Lab is a one-of-a-kind, interdisciplinary pitch event that brings together undergraduate and graduate students as well as postdocs and young professionals.

Twenty innovators and trailblazers were selected out of a pool of candidates to pitch their idea that breaks down scientific and social walls. A jury from a variety of disciplines, universities, and startup companies will evaluate the exciting three-minute pitches.

Jack Reid will present "Breaking The Wall of Sustainable Development Decision-Making."

Join us and watch as the candidates compete for a fully-funded trip to the final Falling Walls Lab in Berlin, Germany. A networking reception with hors d’oeuvres and refreshments will follow the presentations.
