The 16th Falling Walls Science Summit will be held in Berlin from November 7–9, 2024, bringing together some of the most brilliant minds from science, business, politics, and culture to present breakthrough ideas that break down barriers and address the world’s most pressing challenges. Since the summit's inception, over 40 Nobel Laureates have taken the stage, including Emmanuelle Charpentier, the trailblazer behind CRISPR gene editing, Sir Richard Roberts, renowned for discovering gene splicing, and Ferenc Krausz, the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics recipient, who will return as a speaker this year.
