Education Revolution Conference

Free registration form
The U.S. Mission in Greece, in partnership with Socialinnov, organize the Education Revolution Conference, during the 85th Thessaloniki International Fair, in collaboration with the Ministry of Digital Governance.
This is a one day conference, including workshops, inspirational talks and panel discussions, focusing on the future of education. The Education Revolution Conference aims to engage more children, educators and innovative schools with STEAM, to motivate more students – and especially girls – to pursue careers in these fields, to inform the general public and especially teachers, students and educational organizations about innovation in education, but also to start a dialogue about the impact of the IoT in education in the following years.
If you have plans to be in Thessaloniki during the 85th TIF, you can register here to attend this conference for free.
The Education Revolution Conference takes all necessary measures to ensure the health and the safety of all participants, trainers and partners. It should be noted that the entry to the Thessaloniki Exhibition and Congress Centre (offices and pavilions) is allowed only after presenting either a certificate of vaccination or recovery from SARS-Cov-2 or the EU Digital COVID Certificate.
