We are happy to announce our first Heidelberg Open Lab workshop!
Organizing scientific events—workshops, summer schools, conferences, symposia—can seem like a daunting task. You need to design the event structure, secure funding, invite guests, promote it, handle payments, and communicate with participants. On top of that, there are logistics to manage: catering, flights, hotels, and scheduling.
It’s a lot, but with the right approach, some key knowledge—and the right people around you—you can successfully organize an event, even with limited resources.
During our workshop, you will learn how to navigate these challenges efficiently, streamline the planning process, and make your event a success.
During our workshop you will learn how:
- design your event, select its target and set goals
- secure funding: find sponsors, write grant applications
- promote your event on social media and mailing groups
- how to approach graphic design
- how to contact guests and prepare invitations
- how to proceed funding: event fees, grants, sponsors money
- how to ensure good atmosphere
- what to do afterwards
And much more!
The event will take place on Monday, April 7th at COS, Heidelberg at 16:45. Please find the application form HERE.
